what income to include for student finance pls?

Hi, wondering if anyone can help please...
Just in the middle of completing student finance forms with son for uni this sept and a bit confused what we have to include as household income.

I know to include income(wage) and tax creds i get for youngest son. I also recieve a small monthly payment for youngest son from my ex(private agreement not through csa) i cant find anything that states whether i should include this or not?

Also eldest son(uni one) curently works 20 hours a week, although often has an extra 5-10 hours a month overtime and will obviously be leaving this job when he moves to uni. Do we include his income from this job? He has also saved up a nice chunk of savings from this job...do we include them?

Many thanks :)

    I don't know the answer to your question about maintenance but your older son's income and savings don't affect the application.
