ESA and absence from home within GB was created by micksville
Hi,
I receive Pip HRM and MR Care and ESA (SG) and am hoping to make a trip within England for a short 2 day break. I use a powered wheelchair. so am not contradicting anything in my claim. I am sure I read once that you must inform DWP even if away from home for only one night. Is this still the case as I cannot find anything in the current regs anddon't wish to fall foul of the rules. I would be away for 2 nights maximum.

No, you don't need to inform the DWP if you will be away from home for this period of time and still in the UK.
