Quick Answer
To check your disability certificate status, go to udid.gov.in, click "Track Your Application Status," and enter your Enrollment Number along with your date of birth. The portal shows exactly where your application is: submitted, pending medical assessment, under review, approved, or UDID card dispatched. No login is required if you have your enrollment number; if you have lost it, you can also check status after logging in to your applicant account with your registered mobile number.

Where to Check Disability Certificate Status
There is exactly one official place to check a disability certificate status in Gujarat and every other state: the national UDID portal at udid.gov.in. Gujarat does not run a separate state-level tracking system for disability certificates the way it does for scholarships or ration cards; every application, regardless of which district hospital assessed you, is tracked centrally through UDID. This is different from services like the Digital Gujarat scholarship status or ration card status, which run on Gujarat-specific portals.
If you applied through the Digital Gujarat disability certificate guide, whether online at udid.gov.in or offline at your District Civil Hospital, your status still lives in the same UDID database and is checked the same way.
How to Check Disability Certificate Status: Step-by-Step
Go to udid.gov.in
Open the official UDID portal at udid.gov.in in any browser, desktop or mobile.
Click "Track Your Application Status"
This option is visible on the homepage menu, sometimes listed as "Applicant Login" with a status-tracking sub-option. It does not require creating a new account.
Enter your Enrollment Number and Date of Birth
Your Enrollment Number was sent to you by SMS and email when you first submitted the application. Enter it exactly as received, along with your date of birth in the format shown on screen.
View your current status
The portal displays your application's current stage, from Submitted through to UDID Card Dispatched. If your certificate has been approved, a download link for the e-Disability Certificate appears on the same screen.
Note the date and stage for your records
Screenshot or write down the status and date shown, especially if you plan to follow up with the hospital or the helpline. This helps support staff locate your file faster.
Follow up if a stage has not moved in over 30 days
If your status has been unchanged for more than a month, particularly at "Pending Medical Assessment" or "Under Review", contact the hospital's disability cell or the DEPwD helpline with your enrollment number.
Every Disability Certificate Status Stage Explained
Unlike a simple "pending or approved" tracker, the UDID system moves an application through several distinct stages. Knowing exactly what each one means saves you a wasted trip to the hospital or an unnecessary call to the helpline.
| Status Shown | What It Actually Means | What You Should Do |
|---|---|---|
| Application Submitted | Your online form and documents have been received by the system. | Wait for an appointment SMS, or visit the selected hospital during OPD hours. |
| Pending Medical Assessment | The file has reached the hospital but you have not yet been examined. | Visit the designated government hospital with your application printout and original documents. |
| Medical Assessment Done | The doctor has examined you and entered findings into the system. | No action needed; wait for the CMO or medical board to approve the findings. |
| Under Review / Verification | The Civil Surgeon, CMO, or medical board is reviewing the assessment before certifying it. | No action needed; this stage typically clears within 7 to 15 days. |
| Approved / Certificate Generated | Your disability certificate has been approved and the digital certificate created. | Download the e-Disability Certificate PDF from the portal immediately. |
| Card Printed | The physical UDID card has been generated and queued for dispatch. | Wait for the dispatch confirmation and tracking number. |
| UDID Card Dispatched | The physical card has been handed to postal/courier services. | Track delivery using the dispatch tracking number on the portal. |
| Sent Back / Documents Required | The application was paused because something is missing or unclear. | Read the specific remark on the portal, gather the requested document, and resubmit promptly. |
| Rejected | The application did not meet the criteria, most often below the 40% threshold. | Read the rejection reason, gather stronger medical evidence if applicable, and reapply or appeal. |
How Long Does Each Stage Take?
Processing time varies by district and hospital workload, but here is a realistic timeline based on typical Gujarat cases:
| Stage | Typical Duration |
|---|---|
| Submission to hospital appointment | 3 to 10 working days |
| Medical assessment (once you visit) | Same day to 3 working days |
| Assessment to CMO/Board approval | 7 to 15 working days |
| Approval to e-Certificate availability | 1 to 3 working days |
| Certificate approval to card printing | 5 to 10 working days |
| Card printing to postal dispatch | 5 to 10 working days |
| Total, submission to card in hand | 15 to 45 working days |
Complex or high-percentage cases that require a full medical board (multiple specialists) generally take longer than single-specialist assessments, since coordinating board members' availability adds time to the "Under Review" stage.
What If You Lost Your Enrollment Number?
The Enrollment Number is essential for status tracking without logging in, but it is recoverable if lost:
- Check the SMS and email sent at the time of submission; search your inbox for "UDID" or "enrollment".
- Log in to your applicant account on udid.gov.in using your registered mobile number and password; your enrollment number and current status appear under "My Applications" without needing to re-enter it.
- If you also forgot your password, use "Forgot Password" on the login page and reset it via OTP to your registered mobile number.
- If your mobile number itself has changed, contact the UDID helpline at 1800-11-4515 with any identifying details (name, date of birth, hospital, approximate application date) for manual account recovery.
- As a last resort, visit the hospital where you were assessed; the disability cell keeps a local record of applications processed through their centre and can look up your enrollment number.
Tracking the Physical UDID Card After Dispatch
The application status and the card delivery status are two different things, and this is where many applicants get confused. Once your status shows "UDID Card Dispatched," a separate speed post or courier tracking number is generated, distinct from your enrollment number. This tracking number is shown on the same UDID portal status page, usually just below the dispatch date. Use it on the India Post or courier partner's website exactly as you would track any parcel. If the tracking number shows the card has been delivered but you have not received it, check with family members at your registered address first, then contact your local post office before raising an issue with the UDID helpline, since most "non-delivery" cases are simply delivered to a household member.
Checking Status via the UDID Mobile App
Beyond the website, the official UDID Mobile App (search "UDID" on the Google Play Store; confirm the publisher is listed as a government or DEPwD-affiliated entity) lets you check status on the go. After logging in with your applicant credentials, the app shows the same status stages as the website, sends push notifications when your status changes, and allows you to download the e-Disability Certificate once approved. This is a separate app from the Digital Gujarat App (Sugam), which handles Gujarat-specific scholarship and ration card tracking rather than the national UDID disability certificate system.
Fixing the Most Common Status Problems
Status stuck at "Pending Medical Assessment" for weeks
This almost always means the hospital appointment has not happened yet. Visit the assigned government hospital's disability cell directly with your application printout rather than waiting for an SMS reminder, since reminder messages are sometimes delayed.
Status shows "Under Review" for over a month
Contact the CMO office or disability cell at the assessing hospital with your enrollment number; ask them to confirm the file has reached the certifying officer and has not been misplaced in an internal queue.
"Sent Back / Documents Required" with no clear reason listed
Log in to your applicant account rather than the guest tracker, since the specific remark from the reviewing officer is sometimes only visible after login. Common missing items are a clearer medical report scan or an Aadhaar name mismatch.
Certificate shows "Approved" but the download button does not work
Try a different browser such as Chrome or Firefox, clear your browser cache, or switch to the UDID mobile app, which has a more reliable download flow than the desktop site during peak hours.
UDID card status shows dispatched but never arrived
Use the courier tracking number shown on the status page first; if it shows non-delivery or the number is invalid, request a duplicate card through the portal rather than waiting indefinitely.
Status page shows an error or will not load
The UDID portal, like most high-traffic government systems, is slower during 11 AM to 2 PM on weekdays. Try again in the early morning or evening.
Rejected status with a vague reason
Request the detailed rejection remark from the hospital's disability cell in writing; this is required if you intend to appeal to the medical board or gather additional medical evidence before reapplying.
Disability Certificate Status Tracking Across States
Every state uses the same national UDID portal for status tracking, so the process described above works identically whether your application was assessed in Gujarat or elsewhere. What differs between states is typically the average processing time and which state welfare schemes are unlocked once your certificate is approved.
| State | Status Tracking Portal | Typical Total Processing Time |
|---|---|---|
| Gujarat | udid.gov.in | 15 to 45 days |
| Maharashtra | udid.gov.in | 15 to 45 days |
| Kerala | udid.gov.in | 15 to 30 days |
| Rajasthan | udid.gov.in | 20 to 45 days |
| Delhi | udid.gov.in | 15 to 45 days |
| Uttar Pradesh | udid.gov.in | 30 to 90 days |
| Bihar | udid.gov.in | 30 to 90 days |

Why Your Disability Certificate Status Matters Beyond the Certificate Itself
An approved disability certificate status is often the trigger point for several other benefits and applications:
- Divyang Sahay scheme in Gujarat, which provides financial assistance and equipment, requires an approved certificate before an application can even be started; see the Gujarat Welfare Schemes guide.
- Scholarships for students with disabilities, both on the National Scholarship Portal and via Digital Gujarat, require the certificate number as a mandatory field in the application.
- Income tax deduction under Section 80U for the current financial year can only be claimed once the certificate is in hand and dated within the relevant assessment year.
- Railway and GSRTC bus concessions require the physical UDID card or a printed e-Certificate to be shown at the point of travel, not just an "Approved" status on screen.
- Some income and caste certificate applications on Digital Gujarat ask applicants to declare disability status; having your certificate ready avoids delays there too. See the Income Certificate Gujarat guide and Caste Certificate Gujarat guide.
- Once issued, you can independently confirm your certificate's authenticity anytime using the Certificate Verification Gujarat tool alongside the UDID QR code.
Frequently Asked Questions
Visit udid.gov.in, click "Track Your Application Status," and enter your Enrollment Number along with your date of birth. The current stage of your application appears instantly, with no login required.
It means your application has reached the hospital system but you have not yet attended your medical examination. Visit the government hospital you selected during application, ideally with your application printout, to complete this step.
Typically 10 to 20 working days, covering card printing and postal handover. You can track the physical card separately using the dispatch tracking number shown on your status page once available.
Yes. Log in to your applicant account on udid.gov.in using your registered mobile number and password; your enrollment number and status appear automatically under "My Applications" without needing to type it in.
Contact the disability cell or CMO office at the hospital where you were assessed, with your enrollment number ready. If that does not resolve it, call the DEPwD helpline at 1800-11-4515.
This means a reviewing officer flagged something incomplete or unclear, commonly a blurry medical report scan or a name mismatch with Aadhaar. Log in to your account to view the exact remark, then resubmit the corrected document.
Not through the guest tracker, since the enrollment number and date of birth are required together. If you never received one, or have lost all record of it, log in with your registered mobile number instead, or contact the hospital's disability cell to look it up.
Yes, the official UDID Mobile App on the Google Play Store lets you track status, receive push notifications on status changes, and download your e-Certificate once approved, functioning as a mobile version of the udid.gov.in status tracker.
Application status tracks your certificate through the approval process, from submission to "Approved." UDID card status is a separate, later tracking stage covering the physical card's printing and postal delivery, using its own courier tracking number.
Try a different browser, clear your cache, or use the UDID mobile app instead, since the download function is sometimes unreliable on the desktop site during high-traffic hours. If the problem persists, contact the UDID helpline.
The status page will show "Rejected" along with a reason, usually visible after logging into your applicant account rather than the guest tracker. Common reasons include disability assessed below 40% or incomplete supporting documents.
Yes. The enrollment number and date of birth belong to the applicant (the person with the disability), regardless of who submitted the application, so a parent or guardian can check status the same way using the child's details.
No. Unlike scholarships or ration cards, which use Gujarat-specific systems, disability certificate status for Gujarat residents is tracked entirely through the national UDID portal at udid.gov.in, the same system used by every other state.
The status updates each time a stage is completed, whether that is a hospital visit, a doctor's assessment entry, or a CMO's approval, rather than on a fixed daily schedule. Checking once every few days during active stages is usually sufficient.
