If I have a paper stating that I have (light) Cerebral Palsy Will I be able to get Disablity somewhere else?
Question:
Answers:
That note stating you have a disability, no matter how mild, will help. You will still have to fill out lots of paperwork at the disability office in Quebec and give them a copy of that note. They may even need to doctor to fill out additional paperwork.

Can you get disability faster than what? Than applying for it without that paper?
Can't answer your question. But, would you like help with your Cerebral Palsy? I'd like to suggest that you contact the social services office in Quebec directly to answer that question. I call it "social services" but almost every local government (city, state or province) seems to have their own names for the department providing these services. In any case, that's where I would start.
While they may not be able to evaluate your case until you actually apply, they should be able to tell what documentation is required and they might have brochures, pamphlets or documents they can mail or which you can download from a web site that will prepare you. They should also be able to tell you approximately how long it takes for an average case to be processed.
Without knowing the specifics of your particular situation, it would be impossible to say whether the documentation you already have makes a difference. You may have to be reevaluated in Quebec. And there's no way, even for you, to know what aspects of your disability will be important to the social services in Quebec.
There is always a chance that someone reading your question will have inside knowledge of how the system works in Quebec, but it's just as likely that advice you get here will be outdated, wrong, or just guessing.
Also, it seems from your question that you're not sure exactly when you may be moving to Quebec. The doctor's note may become invalid after a certain period of time. Your condition may improve or get worse.
Governments generally move pretty slowly, but it's also possible that the regulations may change by the time you're ready to move.
But get some information now that may prepare you for the move. If it's going to take 6 months before you can qualify for benefits (length of residency in the province may be a factor), at least you'll know that you need to have six months of income from some source in order to make your move.
