A question about : Studying in the USA

A question about : Student loan deductions before or after tax

I have just rang the SLC company as I have under 3 years to go on my student loan (income contingent plan 1) and I want to swop to direct debit as so as I go under two years.

However, the person to the end of the phone said it is better to have payments taken out via PAYE as they are taken before tax and that DD payment are taken from your taxed salary? Surely this is wrong as having payments taken from salary would not produce a tax saving as they don't reduce your salary!

A question about : Urgent help needed

My daughter has paid Ј450 and Ј297.55 to a woman in Ipswich for accommodation in Salzburg as part of her Uni. abroad learning German.

This woman is apparently moving to Salzburg and has another student staying with her.

My daughter said that she had changed her mind and did not want to stay at this place as she was asked to pay 2 months extra rent in advance by a lawyer, who, when we checked did not work for the company that he said he did and they had never heard of him.

A question about : student loan application form

Question.
Do you have to disclose any interest earned from cash ISAS when applying for your child's student grant.
Is ISA interest regarded as income for the above disclosure????

I have read conflicting information when I googled the above question.

I would be grateful if someone could clarify whether yes or no??
Thank you for any replies

A question about : Barclays student account

Hi, I graduated in 2013 and I'm still on the Barclay's student additions account with an overdraft of up to Ј2000.

I've been wondering about this for a while. Are they not supposed to switch you over to the graduate account after you graduate, then reduce your overdraft year by year? I received no correspondence about this from them.

Thanks

A question about : mature student, no childcare assistance!

Hi!
I'm new to the forum and to childcare. My little girl is due in less than 2 weeks.

Apologies for the length and disorganisation of this thread....

I am a mature student studying for a healthcare degree. I receive NHS funding for my course and am hoping to return to my second year in September, leaving my little girl in nursery.

My partner works full time, earning 24K

A question about : Dictaphone?

I'm hopefully progressing to Uni in September and as such I've begun looking at dictaphones but most seem to have mixed reviews. Has anyone got any experiences of using them for lectures?

Any recommendations?

Thanks
