    Is my understanding correct
    Many of the issues on this forum seem to come from the evidence needed for family income

    If family income is well above the £60k should one just tick the "do not consider family income" box ... will that just process to the minimum loan ... i.e. the amount expected to be allocated anyway

    And, if so, is this the sensible way to go

    Yes, if you are only going to be entitled to the minimum loan anyway then there's no point going to all the effort of getting your parents to input their income and other details.

    Thanks

    I actually am "the parent" but that does seem to make things much easier
