Financial Information Required During OSAP Pickup
I was wondering if anyone knew what financial information we have to provide the financial aid office with when we go to pick up our OSAP. My dad looks after my finances so I'm not completely familiar with all of the figures.

Any feedback will be appreciated!

If the money is going to your bank, then you need your banking information, cheque, or direct deposit information.

Alright. And what about information regarding earnings? I've heard that they ask for income verification (because during the initial OSAP application they asked for an estimate for some figures).

Also, would I need to know any information regarding my parents income?

You mean the summer income? I'm pretty sure they don't, they just ask if there was any change to your income and confirming your RESP (if any).

No you don't, everything has already been checked via the application. If they needed information on your parents income, they would have asked for supporting documentation.

Alright, sounds good. I just wanted to make sure that I wouldn't need to know any specific figures because I don't personally handle my finances so if I did need to know any figures I'd have to ask my dad what they were.

Thanks for your help!
