I’m trying to figure out how to get a permanent handicapped sticker in Indiana. Do I need a specific form or anything? And how do I start the process? Would love any advice or tips from someone who’s done this.
You’ll need to contact your county DMV and fill out form 52900. That’s the main step to get started.

Form 52900? Never heard of it. What exactly does it ask for?

It’s pretty simple—basic personal info and a section for your doctor to sign off on your condition. Nothing too complicated.

Thanks! I’ll check with my doctor and get that sorted. Appreciate it!
You might also need proof of residency, like a utility bill or something. Pretty standard stuff for DMV paperwork.

Does it have to be a recent utility bill? I haven’t updated mine in a while.

Yeah, it usually needs to be recent, like from the last month. Otherwise, the DMV might not accept it.
You should also call ahead to confirm what documents they’ll need. Indiana DMVs sometimes have slight variations in requirements.

Good idea. I’ll give them a call to double-check everything before I go. Thanks!
If you have trouble, try reaching out to legal aid. They can help with the process if things get confusing.

Legal aid? Never thought of that. Do they charge anything?

Most legal aid services are free or low-cost, especially for stuff like this. Worth checking out if you need help.
When I got mine, it took a couple of weeks to process after submitting the form, so plan ahead if you’re in a rush.

Good to know! I’ll try to get everything done ASAP then. Thanks for the heads up!
