As things stand (to my knowledge) no amendments have been made for temporary absence due to self-isolation. Obviously if they’re being treated it falls under medically approved care.

I have also had a few enquiries about going to stay with family during the lockdown and as current advice is to stay put this MAY affect HB payments if the lockdown is extended.

I am hoping this is on the “list of things to look at”....
