Has somebody an mailing address for his/her AdSense check in a country different from where he lives?
Are there any problems if you do it?

Will Google send you some sort of invalid clicks email if you do it?

For example, if you are more than 3 months abroad and check your stats from there, but you recieve your checks in your home country.

You can't change the country Google sends AdSense checks/cheques to, you must email AdSense Support and tell them you are away and you want to open a new account then change all your code to the new account.

If you go back, then you have to repeat this process.

If you are only away for a few months then I'd suggest you just leave it and get someone to pay the checks in for you or have them sent to you.

Personally I don't see why Google can't allow publishers to change the country field. Seems a bit daft given that AdSense is one of those methods of income that is borderless.

No problem at all. I'm away from my mailing address country for up to six months at a time, especially in the winter. I just get the mail forwarded (by my local postal service) to where I'm at then send the checks to my bank. Adds a few weeks delay for each payment but is of no interest to Google.
