Hi, please do not look for small benefits. you may need to face bigger problems in future if, you hide your disability. there is nothing rong in disclosing your disability. you will be recognised with your character, atitude and your qualificationsa. and all humanbeeings will have some diffect in there body. so, no need to hide disability. this is my opinion do not take it otherwise.
