Illustration for Student Loan Scheme Act 2011

The law used to have a section about getting a special deduction rate certificate if you had a lower repayment obligation for your student loan. This section was called 'Special deduction rate certificate for lower repayment obligation'. However, this part of the law doesn't exist anymore. It was removed on 12 April 2012, but the change was backdated to apply from 1 April 2012. This means that you can no longer get this special certificate.
