* how long you will be away, and
* if you meet the criteria for being "ordinarily resident" in Aotearoa New Zealand.
If you plan to be overseas for 26 weeks or less, your payments should continue as normal while you are away as long as you are "ordinarily resident" in Aotearoa New Zealand.
This means that:
* you intend to live primarily in New Zealand, and
* you consider New Zealand to be your home.
You may also be considered "ordinarily resident" if you live in, the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau, and any country New Zealand has a Social Security Agreement (SSA) with (except United Kingdom).
