I am or was on IS, I wrote to my local office by email of a change in circumstances as i am moving abroad to find work. I then sent a letter again recorded delivery to cancel my IS and heard nothing, i have been overpaid 3 payments and i am sending another letter again recorded to stop paying me. I am terrified they are going to say i am committing fraud. This final letter will be the last i send as i am going abroad and i am sending a cheque of the overpayment 2 payments as i used the first unintentionally. what can i do, emails, letters recorded and copies and yet they are still puting it into my bank. HELP I am not working at all until i get abroad.

i sent an email on the 9th sept then a letter on the 15th, i have proof of both, no longer in the area and about to emigrate. I am terrified they will keep paying me and claim fraud. I cleared all hb and ct when i left but is continued and i thought, i am still not working till i get overseas. Now its oct and i believe i have been opayed twice. i have kept it to the side. what should i do, write again or wait and see if the last payment was a final payment as they pay in arrears.

E-mails do not always end up in the correct benefit processing offices let alone the correct department as the emails are submitted to a central email and can take weeks to find thir way to the correct destination. I've actually known an email take in excess of 1 calender month to reach the correct destination (so much for technology!).

The letter should reach the destination far quicker, however you may want to give them a call to check they have received the letter and to ensure it is actioned asap to stop any further overpayment.

IS is paid fortnightly in arrears and you should have recived an end of entitlement notice from the processing centre to acknowledge your instructions to end your claim with form P45.
