Will my maintence loan change?

When i applied for student finace as a over 25 student, they asked for my main job income and specifically to exlude part time jobs.

My main job is 30k, my part time job is like around 17k as I fluctuate in hours.

So as per student finace specific instructions I wrote 30k.

They approved me for the full extra amount, but would this decrease later?

Hi Piewarrior,

The application only asks for your unearned income, not earned, therefore your employment income should not be included. It would be best to upload a cover letter to your account to advise this was included in error. If you do have any unearned income such as ;

Bank or Building Society Gross Interest

Property Lettings or Rent

Dividends from investments/shares/unit trusts

Trusts or Sponsorships

Pensions (any tax free lump sum amount will not be taken into account)

Payment from their employer who has released them to attend their course (employer release)

Any other payment received for attending the course (This does not include University Bursaries)
