To the extent that DAS is now being granted primarily for developmental disabilities this actually makes a lot of sense, because a) the underlying need is unlikely to change materially in that time period and b) it allows DAS families with annual passes more certainty in planning their visits.

I think it makes sense for APs. That way they are approved for the remainder of their ticket and won’t need to worry about reapplying until it’s time to renew.

Here's a screenshot of the changed info from the DAS FAQs.
It will be helpful for AP users - even the older 240 days was helpful. My daughter was approved for DAS for our trip in October 2024 and it was still valid for our trip that we just returned from a week ago.
I think a lot of people who don't have AP will just see 'good for one year' and not notice the 'length of the ticket' language.
