student loan determ

Hello, I'm after some advice or wondering if anyone else has been in this situation.

I've been refused deferment for my student loan as the tax credits I receive take my earnings over the thresholds. My tax credits are payments towards the nursery fees for my toddler, I am struggling to make up the difference as it is.

I am really worried about this, they want me to pay £167 every month, which is something I don't have.

I'm a single parent and money from tax credits takes into account that my wages wouldn't be able to pay for child care without them. I just don't know what to do.....anyone been in this situation and found a way out?

thanks in advance
