Dataset description
Contents of dataset: Personal tax summaries provide the income details for borrowers who do not file IR3. Student loan borrowers who are on salary or wage income form the bulk of the population of this data set. If a borrower under-paid the amount due, the borrower received a PTS along with the amount that was due. From tax year 2013 onwards a switch was made to pay period deduction basis instead of annual income. PTS issue to borrowers due to student loans is expected to drop with the majority being issued only if a borrower requests or due to other reason such as Working for Families.
