Does anyone know if there's any legal obligation to inform people of an ASD diagnosis? I'm thinking of people like insurers, mortgage companies, DVLA...others? I've not long been diagnosed (in my 50s) and haven't a clue!
Thanks, Chris
Hi Chris - similar situation, recently diagnosed in my 50’s.
you ask a very good question about the different areas. I think that I read somewhere about not having to declare to DVLA unless your autism could impact your ability to drive. Which sort of makes sense, but who is to judge if your autism could cause issues when driving?
Thanks very much, GPK26, that's a good start. I was hoping the information/advice pages on this site might provide some practical help, but can't seem to find it anywhere.
