If you're applying for a postgraduate Social Work Bursary we may be able to reduce any income declared using allowable expenses.
Spouse / partner / civil partner
The only expenses considered against your spouse / partner / civil partner's income are;
- Private pension contributions
- Employee pension contributions
- Additional voluntary pension contributions
- Any other expenses connected with employment (if allowable for tax purposes)
You don't need to declare any other expenses on the application as they won't be considered.
Adult Dependant
The only expenses considered against your adult dependant's income are;
- Income Tax
- National Insurance contributions
- Pension contributions
However, we ask you declare their net income with these expenses already deducted on the application
Yourself
You don't need to declare any of your own expenses on the application as we don't consider any of your earned income in our assessment.
