An individual cancels the move after they have told Social Security Scotland that they are moving

An individual might cancel their plan to move from Scotland to another part of the UK. If this happens, Social Security Scotland should treat the individual as if they had never told Social Security Scotland that they were moving. This means there is no requirement make a determination without application. (ADP regs, reg. 53(3) 6)

Individuals should only be treated as if they had never told Social Security Scotland about the move if :

  • they are going to continue to be ordinarily resident in Scotland
  • they told Social Security Scotland about the cancelled move less than 13 weeks after they told Social Security Scotland about the move
