I only SLIGHTLY worked less than 3 years, can I lie about when I stopped working?

But I was still financially independent after I quit using savings I'd accrued from that job. Title says it all. I want as much maintenance loan as possible. I only worked for 2 years and 7 months, can I lie and say I quit that job 5 months later than I really did? The only confirmed way of knowing is if they see that I didn't earn money for those 5 months. But I was still financially independent with the savings I'd accrued!

Yes but did it ask how long you were financially independent or how long you were working....

They want to find out if I have been financially independent yeah? Then the way they're doing that is flawed.

Then I'm ****ed if I don't lie. Well... I have worked 3 other jobs, but they were let me think. They were more than 3 years ago all of them, can I still bring them up?
Idk how much of a risk it is. Hmmmmmmmm....

It's for Student Finance application for Uni maintenance loan.

They verify all employment details with HMRC so there is no way to cheat the system.
