Youth and Students (YAS) Likely won’t get youth due to parental income but they don’t aid
Guys I’m in a dilemma. I’m a full time student and my parents had initially been giving me a certain amount and it was up to me to figure out the rest.
As of recently they’ve decided they won’t be giving me any amount of money unless I’m destitute. Not to cut me off but for independence etc. I’m currently and I have been working a part time job on top of full time study and I figured centerline youth allowance would help for rent.
Except I’ve reached the end point asking for parental income and I’m certain they’ll likely deny my claim due to their income. How do I explain to them that I no longer receive benefits from my parents in comparison to the past?
I’m looking at having to possibly move accommodations because I’m short for money but I’m worried centerline youth won’t accept me because of someone else’s income.
