Research direction

The issue identifies only the GOV.UK Support for Mortgage Interest eligibility guidance and does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the repository's existing benefit-policy definitions, then use the linked guidance to define the eligibility-only scope; done means eligibility is represented and covered by tests without calculating the payment amount.
