Can a old age pensioner with unfrozen pension living in frozen land be prosecuted?


Some UK state pensions are subject to being “frozen” when received by expatriates living abroad. This means that the pension amount remains fixed at the level it was when the individual retired and does not increase annually in line with inflation or other factors.
Approximately 500,000 British people living abroad are affected by this policy, which contrasts with the triple lock system that applies to residents in the UK1.
While this can be frustrating and mentally disturbing for pensioners, it is not a criminal offense or grounds for prosecution, or retribution ie covered by non-sanctionable/disqualifying


For example, if someone falsely claims additional benefits based on their pension status, that could lead to prosecution.
Legal Considerations:
Pensioners should ensure they comply with the laws and regulations of the country where they reside.

In summary, while living in a frozen land with an unfrozen pension will not lead to prosecution

 

 

   It may not lead to a prosecution  but the Government might just ask for their money back and just take it out your weekly pension
