An eligible student's household income is calculated by applying the following steps—

Step 1
If the student is not an independent eligible student (see paragraph 4), aggregate the total residual income of the persons listed in List A.
If the student is an independent eligible student, aggregate the total income of the persons listed in List B.
- List A
- The persons are—
  1. the eligible student, plus
  2. either—
    1. each of the eligible student's parents (subject to paragraph 5), or
    2. where the student's parents have separated, the parent selected under paragraph 6(3) and that parent's partner (if that parent has one), (subject to paragraph 7).
- List B
- The persons are—
  1. the independent eligible student, plus
  2. the student's partner (if the student has one), (subject to paragraphs 7 and 8).

a
the eligible student's parent, or
b
the partner of the eligible student's parent,
if the child is the eligible student.
4
In Table 2, Column 2 sets out the amount of dependent child deduction in respect of the academic year set out in the corresponding entry in Column 1.

the residual income of both parents for the applicable financial year multiplied by X/52, and
b
the residual income of the parent selected under sub-paragraph (3) for the applicable financial year multiplied by Y/52,
where—
- X is the number of weeks in the current academic year during which the parents were not separated, and
- Y is the number of weeks in the current academic year during which the parents were separated.
3
Where sub-paragraph (1) or (2) applies, the Welsh Ministers must select the parent whose residual income it is the most appropriate to take into account in the circumstances.

Separation of eligible student's parent or independent eligible student from partner
7
1
Where—
a
the parent of an eligible student, or
b
an independent eligible student,
is separated from his or her partner for the duration of the current academic year, the income of the partner is not aggregated under Step 1 in paragraph 3(1).
2
Where—
a
the parent of the eligible student, or
b
an independent eligible student,
has separated from his or her partner during the current academic year, the amount of the partner's residual income to be aggregated under Step 1 is calculated by applying the formula in sub-paragraph (3).
3
The formula to be applied is—
X × (C/52)
Where—
X is the residual income of—
1. the eligible student's parent's partner, where List A of Step 1 applies, or
2. the independent eligible student's partner where List B of Step 1 applies,
for the applicable financial year;
C is the number of complete weeks of the current academic year during which—
1. the eligible student's parent and his or her partner, or
2. the independent eligible student and the student's partner, were not separated.
were not separated.
4
Where an eligible student has more than one partner in any one academic year, this paragraph and Step 1 of paragraph 3(1) apply in relation to each partner.

Independent eligible student or partner is a parent of an eligible student
8
Where—
a
an independent eligible student (“I”) or the partner of the independent eligible student (“PI”) is a parent of an eligible student (“S”), and
b
a statutory award payable to S is calculated by reference to the residual income of I or PI, or both,
the residual income of PI is not aggregated under List B of Step 1 in paragraph 3(1) for the purposes of calculating the household income of I.
PART 3

1
In this Schedule, a person's taxable income means—
a
the aggregate of—
i
the total income on which the person is charged to income tax under Step 1 of section 23 of the Income Tax Act 2007 , and
ii
if not already a component of total income under sub-paragraph (i), payments and other benefits specified in section 401(1) of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 received by the person or treated as received by the person (but disregard section 401(2) of that Act for the purposes of this sub-paragraph), or
b
where the income tax legislation of a member State applies to the person's income, the person's total income from all sources as determined for the purposes of the income tax legislation of that member State.
2
For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b), where the income tax legislation of—
a
the United Kingdom and one or more member State, or
b
more than one member State,
applies to the person in respect of the year under consideration, the person’s total income from all sources is the amount derived from the determination resulting in the greatest amount of total income, including any income which is required to be taken into account under paragraph 18.

But a person's taxable income does not include income paid to another person under a pension arrangements order.
PART 4

Residual income
CHAPTER 1

Residual income of an eligible student

Calculation of eligible student's residual income
10
For the purposes of calculating an eligible student's household income under Part 2, the student's residual income is calculated as follows—
- The eligible student's taxable income in respect of the current academic year.
- Plus
- Income payable to the eligible student under a pension arrangements order during the current academic year, net of income tax.
- Minus
- The aggregate of the deductions set out in paragraph 11 (unless already deducted for the purposes of determining the student's taxable income).

Deductions for the purpose of calculating residual income of an eligible student
11
For the purposes of calculating an eligible student's residual income, the deductions are— Deduction A Remuneration paid to the eligible student in the current academic year for work done during any academic year of the course, but not remuneration in respect of any—
a
period of leave taken by the student, or
b
other period during which the student is relieved of a duty to attend work,
so that the student may undertake the course. Deduction B The gross amount of any premium or sum paid by the eligible student during the current academic year in relation to a pension in respect of which—
a
relief is given under section 188 of the Finance Act 2004 , or
b
where the student's income is computed for the purposes of the income tax legislation of a member State, relief would be given if that legislation made provision equivalent to the Income Tax Acts,
but not including any sum paid as a premium under a policy of life assurance.

Income of eligible student received in currency other than sterling
12
1
Where the eligible student receives income in a currency other than sterling, the value of the income is—
a
the amount of sterling the eligible student receives for the income, or
b
where the student does not convert the income into sterling, the value of the sterling which the income would purchase using the HMRC exchange rate.
2
The HMRC exchange rate is the rate published by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs for the month corresponding to the month in which the income is received.
CHAPTER 2

Residual income of persons other than an eligible student

Persons to whom this chapter applies
13
This Chapter makes provision for the calculation of a person's (“P's”) residual income where P means the following—
a
the parent of the eligible student,
b
the eligible student's partner, or
c
the eligible student's parent's partner, as the case may be, and where P's income is aggregated under Step 1 in paragraph 3(1) for the purpose of calculating an eligible student's household income.

Calculation of residual income of persons other than eligible student
14
P's residual income is calculated as follows—
- P's taxable income for the applicable financial year.
- Plus
- Income payable to P under a pension arrangements order during the applicable financial year, net of income tax.
- Minus
- The aggregate of the deductions set out in paragraph 15 (unless already deducted for the purposes of determining P's taxable income).

Deductions for the purpose of calculating residual income of persons other than eligible student
15
1
For the purpose of calculating P's residual income, the deductions are— Deduction A The gross amount of any premium or sum paid by P in respect of a pension during the applicable financial year, in relation to which—
a
relief is given under section 188 of the Finance Act 2004, or
b
where P's income is computed for the purpose of the income tax legislation of a member State, relief would have been given if that legislation made provision equivalent to the Income Tax Acts,
but not including any sum paid as a premium under a policy of life assurance. Deduction B Where paragraph 18 applies, a sum equivalent to Deduction A provided that this sum does not exceed the deductions which would be made if the whole of P's income were in fact income for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts. Deduction C £1,130, where P—
a
is an eligible student in respect of the current academic year but is also the parent of an eligible student, or
b
holds a statutory award in respect of the same period.

Applicable financial years: calculating residual income of persons other than eligible student
16
1
This paragraph specifies the applicable financial year for the purposes of calculating P's residual income.
2
Unless sub-paragraph (3) applies, the applicable financial year is PY-1.
3
The applicable financial year is CY if the Welsh Ministers are satisfied that—
a
where P is one of two persons whose residual incomes are aggregated under paragraph (b)(i) or (ii) of List A in paragraph 3(1), the aggregate of the residual incomes of P and the other person for CY is likely to be at least 15% lower than the aggregate of the residual incomes of P and the other person for PY-1, or
b
in any other case, P’s residual income for CY is likely to be at least 15% lower than P’s residual income for PY-1.

Income from business or profession
17
1
Sub-paragraph (2) applies where—
a
the applicable financial year for the purposes of calculating P's residual income is PY-1, and
b
the Welsh Ministers are satisfied that P's income is wholly or mainly derived from the profits of a business or profession carried on by P.
2
Where this paragraph applies, P's residual income is P's income for the earliest period of twelve months ending in PY-1 in respect of which accounts are kept relating to P's business or profession.

Treatment of income not treated as income for income tax purposes
18
1
Sub-paragraph (3) applies where P is in receipt of any income which, for any of the reasons set out in sub-paragraph (2), does not form part of P's income for the purpose of the Income Tax Acts or the income tax legislation of a member State.
2
The reasons are— Reason 1
a
P is not resident ... in the United Kingdom, or
b
P's income is computed for the purposes of the income tax legislation of a member State and P is not resident or domiciled in that member State.
Reason 2
a
P's income does not arise in the United Kingdom, or
b
P's income does not arise in the member State in which P's income is computed for the purposes of that State's income tax legislation.
Reason 3
The income arises from an office, service or employment, income from which is exempt from tax.
3
P's taxable income is to be taken to include the income described in sub-paragraph (1) as if it were part of P's income for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts or the income tax legislation of a member State, as the case may be.

P's income in currency other than sterling
19
1
Where P's income is computed for the purposes of the income tax legislation of a member State, P's residual income is to be calculated in accordance with this Part in the currency of that member State and is to be taken to be the sterling value of that income determined in accordance with the relevant HMRC rate.
2
The relevant HMRC rate is the average exchange rate issued by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs for the calendar year ending immediately before the end of PY-1.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations provide for the making of grants and loans to students who are ordinarily resident in Wales for postgraduate master's degree courses which begin on or after 1 August 2019.
To qualify for support under these Regulations a student must be an “eligible student”. To be an eligible student, a person must satisfy the eligibility provisions in Chapter 2 of Part 4 and any other eligibility requirements elsewhere in the Regulations. An eligible student must also satisfy the specific requirements applicable to each type of financial support.
To be an eligible student, a person must fall within one of the categories set out in Schedule 2. The majority of those categories require the person to be ordinarily resident in Wales. For the purposes of these Regulations, a person who is ordinarily resident in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man as a result of having moved from one of those areas for the purpose of undertaking a designated course is considered ordinarily resident in the place from which that person has moved (Schedule 2, paragraph 11(1)). A person is not an eligible student if, amongst other things, that person has already obtained a qualification equivalent to or higher than a master's degree.
The period for which a student is eligible to receive support under these Regulations is determined in accordance with regulations 11 to 14. In certain circumstances an eligible student may transfer from one designated course to another.
Support is only available under these Regulations in respect of “designated” courses within the meaning of regulations 5 and 8. Support is provided to eligible students undertaking a designated course wherever they study in the United Kingdom. Regulations 15 and 16 set out the circumstances in which a student may qualify for support under these Regulations after the designated course has started.
Part 5 of these Regulations makes provision for applications for support (regulation 18), time limits for applications (regulation 19) and regulation 20 permits the Welsh Ministers to make such enquiries as they think necessary to make a decision on an application and to notify an applicant of a decision. This Part also imposes obligations on eligible students to provide the Welsh Ministers with information (regulation 22) and to enter into a contract for a loan (regulation 23).
Support under these Regulations is available in the form of the following grants and loans—
1. base grant and contribution to costs grant (Part 6);
2. contribution to costs loan (Part 7).
The amount of base grant payable to an eligible student is £1,000 (regulation 25). The amount of contribution to costs grant payable to a student is determined by reference to the student's household income and whether they are a care leaver (regulation 27). An eligible student's household income is calculated in accordance with Part 2 of Schedule 3. “Care leaver” is defined in regulation 29.
Contribution to costs loans are payable to eligible students in accordance with Part 7 of these Regulations. The amount of contribution to costs loan is calculated in accordance with regulation 31.
Part 8 of these Regulations makes provision in respect of payments, overpayments and recovery of payments. Regulation 33 gives the Welsh Ministers the power to pay support in instalments.
Regulation 34 provides that the Welsh Ministers must not make any payment of support until they have received confirmation from the relevant academic authority of the student's attendance on the designated course. Regulation 35 enables the Welsh Ministers to cease further payments of support if they receive notice of a student's lack of attendance on the course, other than where they consider it appropriate to make such payments during the student's absence.
Regulation 36 sets out how entitlement to support changes when an eligible student becomes or ceases to be an eligible prisoner.
Chapter 3 of Part 8 sets out how the Welsh Ministers can recover any overpayment of support under these Regulations.
Part 9 sets out information requirements in relation to contribution to costs loans.
Part 10 contains amendments to the Education (Postgraduate Master's Degree Loans) (Wales) Regulations 2017.
Schedule 4 is the final schedule to these Regulations and contains the index of defined terms.
The Welsh Ministers' Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. A copy can be obtained from the Higher Education Division, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ.
