Student Finance Change in Income

I’ve had atleast 15% drop in income as my mum has been out of work for multiple reasons for about 3 months now. I was wondering if SFE only amend the amount for future payments to me or if they pay me the difference between my threshold and the 1 or 2 lower. just wondering as my amount now doesn’t cover rent so by the next rent is due my mum most likely won’t have a job so it will be very difficult to pay

Hi there,

Is your application currently assessed on the household income?

Thanks,

Hi there,

The team will review this and if there has been a 15% drop they will update the application accordingly. If you're due money that should have been paid, this will be back dated and show online how much and when once approved.

Thanks,
Claire
