Dependents....

Simon_Pugsley

When application forms ask you how many dependents, this is how many children you are responsible for.

If the child does not live with you, and you pay maintenance to the mother is this payment taken in to account in the dependents question, or should the manitenence be put in the loan section instead, if not, where should it be put.

Thanks

this is how many children you are responsible for.

Or dependent adults...........................(that why it says dependents and not children).

I would have said the dependents section.
But if in doubt then call whoever sent you the form (the broker or lender).

dependents are not just children. It is those that are financially dependent on you. This could include a parent living with you potentially.
