    For UC it's 1 month. PIP its up to 13 weeks. Carers allowance is 4 weeks. Yes, you should tell them you're going, especially as you said "how long can we live abroad". See link. https://www.independentage.org/get-advice/money/benefits/benefits-abroad
    All benefits departments have different phone numbers.
    Carers allowance. 0800 731 0297
    PIP 0800 121 4433
    For UC you can put a message onto your journal.

    The same rules apply to everyone that are claiming the above benefits.

    If you get sick while abroad and end up staying away longer than permitted you lose your benefits.
