self employed parents applying for dd student finance

Hi

Our dd is starting uni is september and she has been told by school she can apply now for student finance.

My dh and I are self employed and will not have accounts for 08/09 completed by our accountant until beginning of July. Do we have to wait until we have these finished accounts before applying?

Many thanks

Sue

    Get your daughter to apply now, otherwise her first loan payments may be delayed. She can complete her part now, you can complete your part a bit later. At least you will be in the system.

    They are using the 07/08 figures this year in order to speed up the application process.
