Hi,
I'm currently a student finished for the summer. Usually I'd begin working full time now but I was furloughed before increasing my contracted hours so I'm only earning part time wages for the summer. Is there any further assistance I can apply for? I have mortgage to pay and there are very few jobs around

Except for UC probably or any other benefits may be eligible for probably not.0

If there was a maintenance loan involved I believe you have to wait until that has finished before being able to claim.sharpe106 said:Except for UC probably or any other benefits may be eligible for probably not.
Have a look at the benefit entitlement calculators such as entitled to or turn2us. It will give you an idea of any eligibility you may have for benefits.0 -
You can also apply for a mortgage holiday if you wish to do so.0

Can't claim benefits at all until the course is finished. Student loans are meant to cover the summer period.0
