Non-supportive step parent appeal
Applied for OSAP recently and the estimated total was based off of both my parent and step parent’s income (which with this government is never enough). The thing is that my step parent has explicitly stated that they will not support me financially in my academics. They also have never supported me directly or indirectly since the marriage.
Since I’m at uOttawa, there’s pretty much no information on the guidelines for a non-supportive step parent appeal online and when I called the financial office, they told me they didn’t have access to my file until late June???. I’m aware I have to send in a letter and such but I’m not sure if it’s different for uOttawa. And most importantly, I don’t even know WHERE to submit it. If anyone knows anything can you shed some knowledge? Or if someone has dealt with someone similar let me know.
