HRDC has admitted that they should be using net income (less medical expenses) rather than gross income for determination of exceptional financial hardship.

That being said, now they say that if the medical expenses arent directly related to the disability... this is their practice. So if you have chronic fatique and also a serious whiplash injury, they will not allow the medical expenses if the expenses are for the whiplash, not for chronic fatigue.... This will have to be challenged too!

Onwards!

I must admit that at least they do check things out quickly and have been quick to respond. We need to make sure these discoveries of error are applied to ALL applicants, not just my case.
