    Student Finance
    So I sent in my original passport (proof of identity) as an evidence on the 20th May and the status on the student finance is still, "Your student finance application has now been submitted. You may be required to provide evidence to support your application. To move to the evidence section click the ‘Continue’ button." If the form has been submitted, does the deadline (31st May) still affect my form?

    What should I do?
    I'm getting 500£ Maintainance Grant which sucks as most people from my college are getting over £1,000. (sorry just a rant )

    -Thanks

    Wow, you're one of the first I've seen to complain about the amount of grant that you're getting, loan can be understandable.

    Do you mean you posted your passport? If so they're unlikely to have it all sorted 5 days after you've sent it, especially as 2 of those were the weekend.

    The deadline is the date by which you need everything sorted to guarantee you get your payments on time.

    Yes, I posted my passport on the 20th as an evidence and there's no change in status in the student finance form. So does this mean I shouldn't worry about the form any more?

    I'm not complaining about grant, I guess I'm just jealous
