    They looked at my parents income - tax (weekly)

    it worked out at 170.00 , they used some formula..

    I'm pretty sure it's wrong thought! so im here trying to work...

    My mams payslip is weekly but my dad is monthly....

    I can't do divide his PAYE 260.00 a month by 4..as in weeks..so thats where im confused..

    What age are you?

    What is each of your parents take home pay per week? What do they pay on a mortgage/rent?

    May be worth your while living independently and claiming social welfare and rent allowance. Contact citizens advise. Parents cannot be expected to support adult children.

    Need to multiply by 12 (no. of months) and then divide by 52 (no. of weeks in 1 year)

    I have a job now thank god, its just annoying cos I owe my parents alot, and they had very little.
