He said the new test would help create a fair system which provided for "genuine" workers and jobseekers but "does not allow people to come to our country and take advantage".
To claim the benefits, migrants will have to pass a "habitual residence test" including more than 100 extra questions compared to now.
This will be overseen by an "intelligent IT system" which will ensure questions are "tailored to each individual claimant".
Migrants will be allowed to claim benefits if they can prove they are legally allowed to be in Britain and are "habitually resident" the country.
As part of this they might be questioned about what measures they have taken to "establish" themselves in Britain and what ties they still have abroad.
"They will also have to provide more evidence that they are doing everything they can to find a job," the DWP said.

英国政府发表声明:英国的移民在获得与收入相关的津贴之前需要通过英语能力测试。
人们需要回答他们到达英国之前是怎么找工作的,此举是为了“保护福利系统的合理性”。
就业和退休金部大臣伊恩•邓肯•史密斯表示,移民者不能在英国津贴上“占便宜”。
英格兰,苏格兰,威尔士的职业介绍中心会进行更加严格的测试。
就业与退休金部门声称,这个测试只会让那些有合法权利居住在英国并能够给应该带来贡献的移民得到补助。
