Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Dad's partner lives with us but doesnt financially contribute to household...

Basically, my Dad's partner has been living with us for about 8 years now, and my Dad doesn't take any financial help from her to run the household because she has her own other family too.

So it's only my Dad financially supporting me, and he doesnt want her to give her details because it would be unfair. Anyone know what I can do here? :frown:

Hello razzald,

As you Dad's partner lives with you, she will be required to input her income so that we can assess you for your student finance.

You award is based on household income, so although you say she does not contribute her income is still counted as it in the same household.

Thanks
