Student finance when living at home

My daughter is in her final year at uni. She is going to spend the first term of her final year at home (due to covid she hasn’t got accommodation for her final year yet). She hopefully will find accommodation from January onwards. My question is does she qualify for her maintenance loan if she’s living at home? She’s 20 years old and only gets the smallest maintenance loan anyway.

yes, on the student finance form you are asked where you are living during each term, so the loan can be adjusted accordingly. I don't think there is much of a difference between the loans for living at home and living away anyway.
