Application for non-earner benefits dismissed as applicant failed to prove complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The applicant sought a non-earner benefit following a motor vehicle accident.
The Tribunal applied the Heath test and found that the applicant failed to prove a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's medical and occupational therapy assessments, which concluded the applicant could perform her normal life activities, over the applicant's expert evidence, which lacked cogent explanation connecting her limitations to a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The application was dismissed.
