Changing an application for 2011-12 year?Is it possible to change an application type for a year that has nearly passed?
Basically, 2011-2012 year I chose not to support my application with evidence and just got the minimum maintenance loan £4880 (London). I thought it would be a huge hassle to provide evidence and I wouldn't be entitled to any more money, but my parents separated before I applied for 2011-2012 year, circumstances changed, and in retrospect I should've supported my application with evidence.
As such, I missed out on about £1900, lived in poverty all year and owe people money. Is there any possibility I can get that £1900 now, and ask them to change my application for this current year to a supported one and provide evidence? -

Re: Changing an application for 2011-12 year?I'm not sure if you're too late. The guidelines are 9 months after the start of the course, so I guess it would depend on when your course started or which dates SF use. You're cutting it fine but call SF, it may not be too late to ask for income assessed and current year income assessment.
