Er, I've applied for it just after I left school. I'll be deffiantly getting the maxiumum out of it because of my situation. I just got a letter off my college today with some details and I have to ask my mum if she got the NOE off them, which I swear she has, cause I have to take it to college of my pre-induction day then take it to my Customer of Support thingy what ever it is to approve it.
THEN, ever week if my attendance is good and I actually do work in lesson I get my money =D
And it will help, trust me. I've never had my own pocket money and I can barely get what I want but as soon as I start getting EMA I'm hopefully going to save it up to atleast tip it towards my Drivers lessons and such and I may spend the odd £30 a month on a game; well not every month but I want to atleast reward myself with atleast 1 new game a year wth my EMA.
So like yeah, I'm going to be happy when I get it providing nothing goes wrong.
And that Myspace link has nothing to do with EMA. For a start it's an USA account and America don't do EMA, or atleast they don't call it EMA anyway. For more infomation about EMA visit the below link.
EMA: Directgov <<<<<<Link
And i just saw something in Northen Ireland, they get £60. So not fair -.- Then again it's only just started this yerar.
