    If an individual's entitlement to a child's annuity has ended, the

requirements for, or received a diploma or certificate from, a secondary 

school;

    (b) The first month the individual is disabled, if the disability 

began before he or she attained age 22 and continues through the time of 

application for benefits; or

    (c) The first month in which the individual is under a disability 

that began before the last day of a 7-year period (84 consecutive 

months) following the month in which the previous child's annuity ended, 

or the individual was no longer included as a disabled child in a 

railroad retirement annuity paid under the Social Security Overall 

Minimum Annuity (see part 229).
