Application for non-earner benefit dismissed; surveillance evidence contradicted claims of complete inability to carry on normal life.
The applicant sought a non-earner benefit following a motor vehicle accident, claiming a complete inability to carry on a normal life due to physical and psychological injuries.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application, finding the applicant's evidence lacked specificity and was contradicted by inconsistent self-reporting and surveillance evidence showing him jet skiing and lifting weights.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's assessments, concluding the applicant failed to meet the stringent threshold for the benefit.
