College and recieving OPF

LegacyUser · 2013-10-19 22:16:25

I am wondering if attending college affects the One Parent Family payment? I am currently in a masters but this seems to be the first time I have filled out a form with a question asking if I am attending college. Thanks

While on OFP you do not have to be available for work so you can attend college without it affecting your claim. The only issue is with rent allowance, if you are not on BTE rent allowance would not be paid if you are a full time student.
