I don't think the helpline are correct.
Have a look at the WTC regs SI 2005/2002 Reg 9 (2) Case G
In addition to work 16hrs and having a disability that puts you at a disadvantage of getting a job, you have to come under one of the Cases listed in the Regs.
You said that initially she met this through IB, which would be Case A.
Case G says that you meet the criteria if you were entitled to the disability element of WTC, for at least one day in the preceding 56 days, by virtue of having satisfied Case A, B, E or F at the earlier time.
So your client qualified under Case A originally, and it seems to me that she should continue to qualify under Case G providing there were no breaks in her claim so that the 56 days are not satisfied.
If you think this is the case I would suggest an appeal.
