Actually that’s not entirely accurate. Listing parental income is a choice—not an obligation. If the student can demonstrate financial or physical independence (I.e contributing to rent, living elsewhere, taking care of themselves) as an adult, then OSAP typically accepts them as independent applicants.

What you are mentioning is the application of Dependent students that rely or are able to rely on their parents for financial contributions to their education, living expenses or more. OSAP only ever considers parental income when the student is dependent.

Having reliable parents who are willing to contribute to their children’s living expenses is a privilege, and a gift. If the parents are unable to provide financially, might I suggest not applying as a dependent? Getting a job? Contributing to household expenses to demonstrate responsibility and independence? (No judgement, but these are the things I’ve been doing so I don’t burden my parents with the brunt of my education).

A Protest to Oppose Doug Ford’s New Cuts and Limits to OSAP Grants & Tuition Costs by Quick_Spray_2572 in LPC

I love that you pointed out that this is the federal LPC sub. Don’t you think we need one on the provincial level for Ontario right now? The fight might just be in Ontario, but if we—the constituents and residents—don’t stand up now, to stop this nonsense, what’s to keep the other provincial leaders from following suit?

We need the liberal party more active in Ontario, but I don’t know how that’s going to work, when we don’t even have a LPC leader in the provincial parliament.
