A benefit fraudster has admitted conning welfare agencies out of more than £19,000.
Jeannette Robertson told the Department for Work and Pensions and Dundee City Council that she was a single mum, with no income apart from benefits.
In fact, she had been living with then partner Steven Peat for months. Mr Peat was in full-time employment that would have precluded her from obtaining benefits.
Robertson, 32, of William Street in Dundee, pleaded guilty to two charges of obtaining income to which she was not entitled between January 2010 and September 2012.
Sentence has been deferred until August 30.
