You have to notify Centrelink before you go and when you return.
There is now a dept within Centrelink that checks out pensioners going abroad to check up on any cheats....we were interviewed by phone and had to fill out some paperwork giving reasons and how we were paying for the trips etc. Centrelink have a direct link to immigration !!1
Speak to Centrelink....they are good people and very understanding
re $350 per week....it can be done....if this includes airfares and insurance you would have to stay at a losman
