Susi Grant Budget 2025

[Twosocks]

Am I correct in saying that the threshold for EACH band has been increased by 15%? Or where would I find such information?
I have been offered a promotion but reluctant to take it as I will have 2 in college in college next year and I would just lose it all.

SUSI Grant. Is 'Reckonable Income', Gross or Net?

Thanks @michaelm . Crunched the numbers. Just short of getting the 500 off the fees for each of them. They all work part-time jobs outside of holiday work. Kind of unfair that students who work (because they have to) are penalised.

If I wanted the promotion I'd take it and then try to bodge SUSI. If you you haven't maxed your allowable age related pension contributions you could do so to reduce your reckonable income re SUSI. There's also salary sacrifice schemes to reduce income, in particular bike-to-work and unpaid leave. In any event you probably won't "lose it all" as you may get half fees or at least the €500 contribution. Methinks it's a good problem to have.
