@CarlyCotton Hi Carly, just wanted to confirm with you if it is ok to store the input in studentDataIncomeAssistanceAmount. Not sure if this helps, but the same question and input exists on the student side and the input is stored under bcIncomeassistancefordisabilitiesCosts. Thank you.
Lots of unclarity about interface policy, waiting for policy to clarify the true intent of this policy and what groups are eligible
