What is INSS 6-063 - review of permanent disability?
In Spain, a permanent disability (incapacidad permanente) recognised by the Instituto Nacional de la Seguridad Social (INSS) can be reviewed if the person's condition gets worse, improves, or turns out to have been misdiagnosed. Model 6-063 is the request the person concerned — or someone acting for them — files to start that review.
The form is short: the applicant's details; the details of a person providing support measures for a person with disabilities (a de facto or court-appointed guardian, curator or court-appointed defender) or of a representative, if one files it; the reason for the review; your allegations; and two consents. The last two pages are explanatory and data-protection notes.
FileIt turns 6-063 into a guided form and prints your answers into the INSS's own PDF (6-063 cas V.9, 28 August 2026). It checks DNI and NIE letters and the Social Security number's control digits, keeps the supporter and representative blocks optional, writes the date line in Spanish and makes sure your allegations fit their box. The finished PDF is saved in your vault and can be sent for e-signature.

2 1.2 Support measures
Only if the request is filed by a person providing support measures for a person with disabilities: a de facto guardian, court-appointed de facto guardian, curator or court-appointed defender, with their details.

4 2. Reason for the review
Tick worsening, improvement or diagnostic error.

6 Consents and signature
Say whether the INSS may obtain the data and documents it needs from other administrations (if not, you must supply them within 10 working days) and whether it may contact you by mobile and e-mail. Then the place and date, your signature and the INSS provincial office.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Asking for a review without enclosing reports that show the worsening or the improvement.
- Filling in the supporter or representative blocks when you file the request yourself.
- Refusing the data consent and then not sending the documents within the 10 working days the form gives.
- Writing allegations that run past the box — keep them short and enclose the rest.
