OSAP & Job
So I'm currently working part-time and the hours vary from week to week. From my understanding, you have to tell the person processing your OSAP in September how much you're working and the estimated amount you'll make.

I have no idea how much I'll make because I don't have a set schedule and I'll be taking time off for midterms or exams or what have you. So... what should I do? Just give them the minimum amount I could make? Thanks.

It says on the OSAP site that if you make less than $105/week (or something around that), you don't have to report to OSAP.

It varies from week to week, I could make less or more than that. :/ Maybe I just won't say anything, but that's a bad thing to do.

hmm, if its not more than 105/month most of the time AND not significantly larger than 105, then i guess its ok not to report...but thats my personal opinion, ur better off asking the Financial Aid Office about this

I was just wondering how you report to osap that you have a summer job. I filled out my form and submitted it and then I was hired for a job. Can someone help?
Thanks

Contact SFAS, they will be able to help you. Generally you send in some kind of form with supporting documents when you send in your signatures but you'll have to call SFAS to find out the format and procedures.

Hey guys,
I got a job recently and I wasn't sure how I would report it to OSAP. The job is only for a month.
Can someone let me know how to report it. Thanks

Call SFAS, they'll tell you all the steps you need to do and the correct formats.

I think you can also wait and tell them the correction when you pick up your first OSAP installment in September.
