Get and use the forms you need…

In order to collect compensation for your work-related injury, you will need to fill out a number of forms. You will need your doctor to fill out some forms as well. We have provided some of the less complex forms in a downloadable PDF format. To view and print the PDF files, you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader, free software from Adobe.

If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, you may download it by clicking the button below:

Under “Forms…,” a brief explanation of the form and the form's name are provided. “Download form,” allows you to download a PDF of the blank form, which you will fill out.

If you have trouble downloading the PDF(s), try clicking and holding the link and choosing “download to disk” or “save link document as” or “save link target as” or a similar item from the menu (menu options will vary depending upon which browser you are using).

If you have trouble understanding the forms, you may contact the State of New Mexico Workers' Compensation Administration, or you may wish to consult an attorney.
