Benefit claimants who claim Personal Independence Payments (PIP) may risk losing some of their money if they fail to mention when they’re going on holiday.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) says benefit claimants in receipt of PIP must notify them if they are planning to go abroad for four weeks or more.
A temporary absence abroad for up to 13 weeks may be allowed, or up to 26 weeks for medical treatment, according to official guidance.
