Holiday abroad

Hi R

Benefit fraud

You’re committing benefit fraud if you:

~ do not tell the office that pays your benefit you’re going abroad, even if it’s just for a visit
~ deliberately do not report a change in your circumstances while abroad, like buying a property, working, or
claiming a pension or benefit from another country
~ are dishonest in order to get benefits, like continuing to claim the pension or benefit of someone who has
died overseas

Answer to your question, Yes.
