Arrest warrant issused for Wigan mum accused of benefit fraud by making claims while living abroad

Rebecca Dolman, 34, of Moat House Close in Norley, is charged with claiming Child Tax Credit and Income Support over a four-and-a-half-year period between 2017 and 2022 while living out of the country for periods longer than the law permits in order to make valid claims.

The charge adds that while doing this she allegedly failed to notify the authorities of those spells overseas.

She had been due to appear before Wigan and Leigh justices to face the charges but failed to appear so the bench issued a warrant for her arrest.
