## Resource

If you’re on Universal Credit or PIP and dreaming of a vacation abroad, don’t skip this: you must tell the DWP before you go. Most trips under a month are okay—if you report your return date. Longer trips or medical reasons? Still need to notify them. And don’t forget: job-seeking rules still apply even while traveling. The DWP’s strict about transparency to prevent fraud. For PIP, you must share your travel plans, including duration and reason, with up to 13 weeks allowed unless it’s medical. Book that flight? First, talk to them. Honesty keeps your benefits flowing—no matter where you’re headed.
