eligibility: reunir las condiciones


Explanation:
The word elegibility can't be translated as elegibilidad or anything like that. It's a false friend. That word doesn't exist in Spanish. People tend to use it because they translate it directly from English. If you look in the Real Académia de la Lengua diccionary you'll see it doesn't exist. I would change the whole sentence. I can't give you my translation because I need more context but I can translate the second elegibility: Si no cumple con los requisitos pero necesita ayuda, por favor llame.... If you give me more context I can help you with the other one. I know this because I'm a legal translator in Spain.
