    The regulations are very clear: you cannot receive JSA when outside the UK unless you are abroad for a job interview for a short period. So there might be some mileage in asking your friends to provide appropriate documentation for this, although I think it would be far more trouble than the money is worth.

    If you are asking "would I get away with breaking the rules" then this site does not allow anyone to help, although you might be interested in finding out about proxy servers.

    Cant believe people encourage benefit fruad, rules are rules for a reason. As others have said you cannot go abroad and claim JSA.
    Sign off take a free working holiday and sign back on when you return. Sign a fraudulant documant and risk being found along with the consequences, the choice is yours.

    Are you allowing the job centre access to your UJM account?

    This is what you need to address as a priority, change the password, recind consent.
  • Of course the site logs all requests by IP address. The correct question should be: can my Job Coach see my logins by IP address? Only somebody working at the Jobcentre can answer this question.

    Regardles of whether they can see the IP address or no makes no difference, if they have access to your UJ account or not makes no difference, rule is you cannot claim JSA and go on holiday abroad.
  • In theory the border agency should be able to cross check their data with the DWP and the HMRC, but I am not sure this has been implemented yet.
