Application for non-earner benefits dismissed as applicant failed to prove complete inability to carry on normal life.
The applicant sought a non-earner benefit and interest following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant failed to prove a complete inability to carry on a normal life and that his impairments were related to a subsequent accident.
The Tribunal found that the applicant's medical evidence, including reports from his chiropractors and psychologist, either related to the subsequent accident, lacked a comparison of pre- and post-accident activities, or fell outside the 104-week eligibility period.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's multidisciplinary assessment, which concluded the applicant did not suffer a complete inability.
The application was dismissed.
