    That sounds suspicious to me, and i'm sure it would sound suspicious to the DWP. Why not just give them what they want and be free from worry?

    You need to give statements for all your accounts. To do otherwise would be fraud.

    Hi @owoblow121 and welcome to the community. ☺️ The members are right. You need to be open and upfront with your bank accounts, or you put yourself at risk. Is there something you're a bit worried about with the other?
