Will she charged for fraud
My best friend is in a mess, and will appreciate any help and advice. She has 3 children and has been living with a partner who is a student, but they have separated. Her partner went away on holiday after completing his application for student funding online. My friend completed the childcare application, which is done on the form and signed it on his behalf, because he was not there. She also signed on behalf of the childcare provider as well. Student funding got suspicious and asked the childcare provider to confirm if they signed the form, which of course they denied, but because she had put it less figures on the form, than what the childcarer charged. She (childcarer) wrote to student funding and pointed out that there was a misunderstanding, and obviously there was no intention to defraud anyone.
Now the problem is that student funding think it is her partner who filled the form, and they have declined to fund him for this academic year. He does not have any other means of paying his fees, and this is his final year. The reason the student funding are giving is that he is deemed ineligible to receive support by reason of his conduct, in this case, presenting fraudelant information.
If my friend admits to doing this, what is likely to happen? Is it her partner or student funding who can press charges against her? She wanted to write a letter to them and admit to the offence.Is this the right way to do it, or should hshe check herself in at her nearset police station.

Both her partner AND Student Funding could press charges against her forging their signatures.
However,at the present time I would advise her to sit tight and wait and see what happens.There is no point in rushing into admissions of guilt if nobody thinks that you have done something to be guilty of.
It strikes me that the person she will have to apologise to and try and placate is the partner,if her forgery results in him not gettting his funding.
So,in short:~
Don't write to Student Funding,I think they already know what is going on,wait and see what they say.
No, don't go to the police,I don't think they would be interested anyway,and they would probably regard it as a civil not criminal matter.
Sit tight and see how things pan out,and deal with them as they happen.She cannot take back what she has done,she can only hope it all blows over,so to speak.
I amsure things will not be as bad as she thinks,it all may seem black at the moment,but all things pass.
