st: Testing independence of factor variables in a non-linear specification

Hello all,
I am writing to request validation on Stata's --test-- for independence of factor variables in non-linear models.
Based on the following snippet, would it be OK to claim that [H0: interaction terms do not matter] null hypothesis cannot be rejected at the 1% and 5% levels?

. probit choice age disabled##income i.receduc i.sex, nolog
. testparm disabled#income
( 1) [broadband]1.disabled#2.income = 0
( 2) [broadband]1.disabled#3.income = 0
( 3) [broadband]1.disabled#4.income = 0
( 4) [broadband]1.disabled#5.income = 0
chi2( 4) = 7.89
Prob > chi2 = 0.0956
