Question: Is my student finance affected by my parent losing their job?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Guidance for current students
section_headers: My parent/partner has recently lost their job. How will this affect my student finance?
section_content: Some student finance is based on your household income so we’ll need financial
details from your parent(s) or partner to calculate how much funding you can
get. However, we understand that financial circumstances can change and we
have a process in place to help with that. This process makes sure you won’t
lose out on any student finance you’re entitled to.
During the student finance application process your parent(s)/partner will be
asked to provide financial details from a previous tax year. If they’ve lost
their job and are not earning as much now as they did then, we can look at
your application based on their ‘Current Year Income (CYI)’. But this can only
be done after they’ve given us the details of the previous tax year.
There are different rules for the CYI process depending on where you live in
the UK and also the type of student finance you’re applying for – to find out
the specific rules that apply to you go to the relevant website:

Student Finance England
Student Finance Wales
Student Finance Northern Ireland


Reviewer feedback on this answer:
There is information about how the finance is calculated based on the parents job and that is can be affected.
This is an excellent answer because it does provide information as to how student financial aid calculated, and whether or not a parent's income will determine future / current aid. Therefore, this answers the question well.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Guidance for current students
section_headers: I’ve had to come back from the UK before the end of my year abroad. I’m now doing alternative study, will I still get my student finance?
section_content: Yes. If you are continuing your studies remotely, your tuition fees and living
costs will still be paid as planned.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer needs to be improved because it is vague, and it is hard to tell whether or not it is answering the question. It needs more information to clarify whether or not this is related to a parent's income.
Though this discusses financial aid, it does not address whether it will change based on parental income.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Coronavirus (COVID-19): advice for Tier 2, 4 and 5 sponsors
section_headers: If you’re sponsoring a student who is distance learning
section_content: You can continue to sponsor existing Tier 4 students who are continuing their
studies through distance learning, whether they are in the UK or another
country.
If a student has permanently withdrawn from their studies or deferred their
studies for reasons unrelated to coronavirus, you must report this as usual.
You do not need to withdraw sponsorship for new students who have been issued
a Tier 4 visa but are distance learning because they have been unable to
travel to the UK.
New international students who have not yet applied for a visa but want to
start a course by distance learning do not require sponsorship under Tier 4.
This is because they do not need to travel to the UK.
You do not need to tell the Home Office when students have moved to distance
learning.
These arrangements will apply until 31 May 2020, when they will be reviewed.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This discusses tier 4 sponsorships, and does not touch on student finance based on parental income.
This is a bad answer because it has nothing to do with a parent's income and financial aid impacts. This answer only discusses distance learning and visas for students.
