The Administrative Court of Central Finland allowed the inclusion of a calculated student loan in the applicant's income for social assistance purposes. Although the applicants had not formally applied for the loan, they possessed a legal right to state-guaranteed student loan funds. The court ruled that because the primary income system for students includes the right to such loans, the calculated amount must be treated as income.

Voidaanko toimeentulotukilaskelmassa ottaa tulona huomioon opintolaina, jos lainaa ei ole haettu, mutta toimeentulotuen hakijalla olisi oikeus opintolainan valtiontakaukseen.

Hakijat olivat elokuussa 1992 opiskelleet ja saaneet opintorahaa, mutta eivät olleet hakeneet opintolainaa.

Sosiaalilautakunta oli päätöksessään lukenut tuloksi myös hakijain laskelmalliset opintolainat 2 400 mk.

Lääninoikeus totesi päätöksessään, että opiskelijan ensisijainen toimeentulojärjestelmä on opintotuki, johon kuuluvat opintoraha, asumislisä ja opintolaina. Koska hakijoilla olisi ollut oikeus opintolainan valtiontakaukseen, laskelmallinen opintolaina on voitu lukea heidän tulokseen.
