    Parental income increasing; should I inform student finance?

    So, I've already organised all my student finance and got the confirmation through and everything, but just last week my mum got a new job with more money. Do I need to inform student finance, or do they base it on last year's tax income? I've had conflicting advice from people, some saying they base it only on last year's income, and other people saying I need to inform them of the increase.
    What have you heard about it?

    Although do they base it on last years tax I think you still have to change it. Just ring them up just to be safe.

    I have a similar question to anyone else answering this:
    i'm living with my mum now and my student finance is based on our income this year. but once i've moved from this home to start university i'm not allowed to return. I'm being kicked out. So will next years finance be based on me living with her or me living alone? as i will no longer have a 'home' to go to and no household income?

    It will be based on you living alone, since your being kicked out they'll be no-one 'funding/helping' you as well as someone with an income. I'd still recommend ringing student finance just to be safe. Where will you be staying then if you don't mine me asking?
