We kindly ask you to avoid contacting us during this time. In order to be able to process applications more quickly, telephone consultation hours are limited to Wednesday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.
07. Changes to Income
If the current income situation of the income recipient has deteriorated, this can be taken into account upon request. For example, the income situation of the year 2023 and 2024 instead of 2022 would then be used for the calculation of the grant period for the winter semester 2024/25.
Please submit the application using form 7. The future parental income must be estimated. The more accurate the estimate, the more likely you are to avoid a possible claim for reimbursement, which may result from the later final calculation with the actual income amounts from the tax assessment notices. You must take this risk into account with your parents.
The prerequisite is that your monthly subsidy amount increases by at least 10 euros in a corresponding comparison calculation.
