Application for Non-Earner Benefit dismissed due to unreliable testimony and lack of corroborating medical evidence.
The applicant sought a Non-Earner Benefit (NEB) following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent insurer denied the claim, relying on independent medical examinations which concluded the applicant did not suffer a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding the applicant's testimony unreliable due to numerous inconsistencies regarding her marital status, gym attendance, prior accidents, and work history.
The Tribunal accepted the respondent's unrefuted medical evidence and noted the applicant's failure to provide corroborating evidence for her claims.
