Could you advise if when a wife works and earns £17k
Could her husband claim incapacity benefit?

Its not based on earnings, but rather the amount of savings you have.
For full details about entitlement and applying for incapacity benefit see the official PDF below, which tells you everything you need to know.

yes if your husband qualifies with a medical condition that warrants it,he will have to put a sick note in to the social security office (i think that is where it has to go),then in time he will have to fill in a questionare about his illness and they will either decide to give him incapacity benefit or he will be asked to go and see one of their doctors for that doctor to decide whether he can have the benefit.

If your husband is incapacitated then your earnings dont count, you'r husband is the one claiming.
