Hi there, do you mean are you able to use your maintenance loan to put towards a council house? Thanks, Jason

Hi there,

I'm very sorry about your current situation. It wouldn't make you less of a priority, all applications and evidence gets processed accordingly.

Thanks,

Just to note that SLC/SFE can't advise how much of a priority you are for housing. That's something only your local authority can tell you.
