after you your status on how much you get on OSAP. They give it to you in two installments one in sept and one in jan. When you go and line up to get it, they will ask you if your application has changed, etc. If it is a big difference, then it would affect how much you get for the following term.
I didn't think i would work summer, and I did. So after I told them in sept, they had to deduct some of my osap in jan.
In regards to osap finding out... I'm sure they might have a way to find out the information.. i would never want to lie. lol... but I am not too sure about RESP stuff because I don't have it. Maybe someone else can answer this for you!

what is due date for OSAP application?? my situation isn't clear yet, whether I'll be living with my parents or no. therefore, I should wait. In terms of summer job , how would it affect my OSAP loan? when I use OSAP estimator( living by my own) it says I'm eligible for MAX( 11,500$), is it reliable? thanks

it indicates that:
TO USE SOLAR Online Payment Agreement
In order to use OSAP as a payment option on your SOLAR Online Payment Agreement, you must apply to OSAP first, at least one week prior to registering on SOLAR. Students who apply before July 15th are guaranteed to have their OSAP calculate as a Funding Option on the Payment Agreement.
Therefore, you should try and do it before july 15th if possible.
Summer job. i am not too sure. I think i earned only $1500 and osap decreased by only $500ish. I'm sorry, I do not use your situtation, so its hard to tell. I never used the OSAP estimator. hopefully someone else can help answer this.

I got my estimation for OSAP and I am very unhappy and worried with what they estimated me so I want to appeal it. Do I have to appeal it now, while it's still being processed, or do I appeal it once I've received the actual funding?
And the less you make in the summer, the less osap you get?
