Repaying your student loan
Update your employment details
You need to update your details if you:
- leave the UK for more than 3 months (for example, you go travelling or move overseas)
- return to the UK after more than 3 months away
- get a letter or email from the Student Loans Company (SLC) asking you to update your employment details
SLC use these details to work out if you should be repaying your loan.
You might be charged a higher interest rate or build up debt (‘accrue arrears’) if you do not update your details.
