More than likely the reason for that is:
Disability living allowance and Attendance allowance are not means tested so literally you could be a disabled millionaire and entitled to it.
Incapacity benefit however is means tested. So the likelihood is the person you knew had too much income to be entitled to incapacity benefit but met the criteria for DLA
Right can I take my benefits head off now??
Oh and jambutty, when you quote someone please will you leave their name on it so we have an idea who you are responding to?? (see post 42) ta
