You would only be able to use the Working Tax Credit if it contained the Disability Element, you may need to contact your benefit department for details (depending on liasion/data protection), however, this may not be sufficient for SMI as anyone who has been submitting ‘sick notes’ for over 52 weeks will qualify for this element.
