What steps does HMRC *actually* take to check whether someone meets the condition of schedue 1 (disability which puts a person at a disadvantage in getting a job)? I have a client who has cystic fibrosis, they get middle rate DLA care, and work full time. He is currently getting WTC via the disability route, but I cannot see that he satisfies the conditions. Does HMRC, in practice, accept a claimant as satisfying both conditions for the disability element even if they only actually satisfy the benefit one?
