More details from petition creator

Currently students eligible to apply for housing benefit (mainly those with children) have their student loan included as income when calculating their entitlement. I believe this is wrong as a student loan is, as said, a loan which must be repaid at a later date and not an income. If you were to take out a personal loan it would not be counted when assessing your claim.
