Application for income replacement benefits dismissed; applicant ordered to repay $557.50 overpayment to insurer.
The applicant sought income replacement benefits (IRBs) following a motor vehicle accident, claiming she was unable to work as a self-employed aesthetician.
The respondent insurer denied the benefits based on section 44 assessments and sought repayment of a $557.50 overpayment.
The Tribunal found the applicant failed to provide contemporaneous medical evidence proving a substantial or complete inability to perform the essential tasks of her employment.
The applicant's claim for IRBs, interest, and a special award was dismissed.
The respondent's request for repayment was granted, as the overpayment was an error and timely notice was provided.
