Poland tells its citizens to cash in on British benefits before returning home

Poland has encouraged its citizens living in the UK to cash in on Britain’s welfare system before coming back home.

Writing on Powroty – a website for those planning to return from abroad – the Polish government advised: ‘When leaving the UK, it is worth considering whether you are eligible for Jobseeker’s Allowance.

‘The UK unemployment benefit is higher than the equivalent benefit paid in Poland. It’s important to apply for it before leaving. Once you return to Poland, you won’t be able to start the benefits process.’ 

Post-Brexit, European Union citizens who acquired a settled status before December 2020 can claim benefits payments
