Wrong maintenance loan for student finance

I recently checked my application and noticed that it has been approved. However, there seems to be an issue with the maintenance loan amount. I am currently receiving £6,000, whereas I should be receiving £13,000 based on the initial calculation.

To provide some context, I am a full-time student in London , living independently from my parents, with an annual household income of £10,000.
I am over 26 year so I am independent, it’s a mistake ? What I need to do?

It looks like you have been awarded the minimum amount for now (which is standard practice). It will be revised once your household income evidence is assessed. Current processing times are here:
