Gavin Hark, from Oxshott, who had more than £25,000 in the bank, defrauded taxpayers out of £7,571 in housing benefit and council tax relief between November 2002 and September 2008.
Magistrates handed down a one-year community penalty order, under the terms of which Hark will have to carry out 100 hours of unpaid community work.
The bench also ordered him to pay the council’s legal costs, of £235, in full straight after the hearing. He has repaid the fraudulent benefit.
