    It would depend on your household income, household composition and LHA rate.

    To get disability part of WTC you normally would be in receipt of a qualifying social security benefit and the calculator would take this into account by giving you the appropriate disability premium. You just enter the gross amount of WTC.
    These are my own views and you should seek advice from your local Benefits Department or CAB.
