If the total income of all members of the household is less than the above amount, it is a guideline for receiving school assistance. However, the standard amount varies depending on the age composition and rent, so please use it as a guideline only. If you are unsure whether you meet the criteria, we recommend that you apply.
Income in the above table includes part-time work, casual employment, and pensions. For salaried workers, it refers to the "Amount Paid" on the tax withholding slip minus social insurance premiums and withholding tax. For non-salaried workers, it refers to the "Total Income" on the tax return. If your income has suddenly changed due to special circumstances such as leaving your employer, bankruptcy, illness, or disaster, please contact the Academic Affairs Division.
(Note)
If your household includes a parent or guardian who moved to Inagi City after January 2, 2020, proof of income from one of the sources (copies accepted) for all applicable persons is required.
- Withholding tax slip for employment income for 2020
