Maintenance Loan

Dear Student Finance,

I am an EU student with a pre-settled status. I just got a job at a student cafe, with a zero-hour contract as my shifts are very flexible. Would I be eligible for maintenance loan for the second term? If so, what documents do I need to fill? Thank you.

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

When was it your course started? Thanks, Jason

hi, my uni started last year - 2022/2023

Sorry, I meant the actual academic year. Does it start in September? And when did you start your job? The exact date if possible, thanks, Jason

well, I believe it officially starts in September but my first lessons are in October, so maybe October?
and I signed the contract on 17th of September.

Thank you. I was just checking to see your eligibility for term 1 but it would be term 2 and term 3 (as long as you're working throughout those years). You can apply as a Migrant Worker which would be a PN1 form via post along with your payslips and contract.

Have you already made an application for tuition fees only? Thanks, Jason

Hi Jason,

Yes, I already have the tuition fees loan. So, what I need to do is to send my payslips and tenancy contract, is that right? What if I live with other students and we split the rent irregularly as our rooms have different sizes? Lastly, should monthly support from parents be mentioned in any way?
Thanks.
