DWP could stop your benefits if you fail to report these 18 changes

The Department for Work and Pensions could stop your benefits if you fail to report any of these 18 changes.

You commit benefit fraud by claiming benefits you’re not entitled to on purpose. If you fail to report certain changes in your circumstances you could be issued with a fine and taken to court.

Your benefits can also be reduced or stopped for up to three years if you’re convicted of benefit fraud. The amount of time they’re stopped depends on how many times you’ve committed fraud.
