Dd1 has just started an art foundation course, so not full fees, but she needs £500+ for equipment etc.

H and I separated about 8 weeks ago so all finances etc are still to be sorted. He still pays half mortgage and bills out of a joint account. We earn very similar amounts.

I want to apply for a bursary to help fund Dd but am not sure what to put on the form. Does the Mortgage etc count as additional income?

Also, as this is all still early days, he does not officially pay maintenance for the 3dc, so there is no evidence to support any figure I put down.

He has moved out and is living elsewhere for the moment, but is making sinister noises about moving back. If I claim bursary, receive it and he moves back in, although never as a couple, will his income mean I will have to pay it back?

Finally, why is nothing ever simple? :)

I'm sorry you are in a difficult place.

I can't give you specific advice, but I would suggest your DS goes to the welfare centre at his college/uni. They are likely to have someone trained to give advice on the specific rules of this scheme.
