If you meet the basic eligibility criteria such as residency, everyone is entitled to a basic Maintenance Loan from Student Finance. This is then "topped up" (and there may also be a non-repayable Maintenance Grant), based on how much your household income is. This larger Maintenance Loan, is the income-contingent loan.
