Household income/own income

Hi,

I need some advice on applying for maintenance loan. I will be 25 at the time of my course starts, I am living at home but have been working for the last 7 years. When I start university, I will not be in employment so will solely depend on maintenance loan. Do they take my details of my last 3 years employment and decide how much I will get from that income or will they combine both mine and my fathers income as "household income"?
