Going Abroad - Reduced Earnings Allowance
Temporary absence
Payable in EEA, Switzerland and certain countries with which we have a Reciprocal Agreement/Convention, subject to the normal UK statutory conditions being satisfied.
In non EEA countries including Switzerland and non Reciprocal Agreement/Convention countries it can normally be paid for at least 3 months provided the absence from Great Britain is not in connection with any employment, trade or business. There are also rules concerning the date on which a claim is made.
Permanent absence
Reduced Earnings Allowance is not payable when the absence from Northern Ireland is permanent.
