Hi
Apologies if this has been asked before. I couldn’t find it in the FAQ or by searching, and I couldn’t find much on the subject on the Student Loans Company site.
I started contracting two months ago. I lost my permanent job a while ago, was offered a week’s temping at a charity, and then some months later was offered a 3-month contract at a different employer. The contract is up next month. I’m using an umbrella company.
I’ve never earned enough to go over the student loans repayment threshold before, and now I’m earning more per month than the threshold. But I’ve no way of knowing how much I’ll be earning once this contract’s up.
So my question is: can I defer repayments of my student loans again, even though for 3 months I’ve been earning over the threshold, or am I right in thinking that I have to start repayments and then stop again once my earnings go below the monthly threshold?
Thanks for your help.
