Hi, I first wanted to say thank you to the people who put the guides on the forum which worked great in my ESA support group application. best 20 quid I ever spent
My question I have today is, how many holidays under 4 weeks are claimants allowed. I currently have 1 2 week visit overseas which will be quite soon, and one further one for 10 days in May next year. Do I have to tell the ESA department that I am going away.
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it? I am not aware of any limit to the number of times a claimant can go on holiday the legislation only refers to the time they can go away for.
We recommend members tell the DWP in advance of any time they will be away from their normal place of residence to avoid problems with WFIs, assessments and other requirements that the DWP or it's agents require of them.
