Fatawa Question

Dear Dr. Monzer, As-Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatu Allah wabarakatu. Eid Mubarak and May Allah accept from you and us all good deeds. If you can please answer the following question I have received from one of my community in Canada. Jazakum Allahu Khayran for your constant efforts. Sincerely, Samy Asc Shaikh. After wishing from Allah that he will grant you and I Jannat el Firdows. I have one situation that I need Iftaa on it which I could not find out with my basic Islamic Knowledge. It’s that we are new in Canada and my father works overseas. We applied for university loan but we wrote in the form that we are zero income family (but my father has a good paying job outside the country) and with this form we got some financial help from the government (for our university fees). Please Shaikh Jazaka Allah Khair can u please tell me if my father saying that we are zero income family make the money we got from the government to pay for our university Haram money . Please let me know what you think because I don’t want to study with haram money and am scared from Allah punishment in Qiyamah Jazak Allah Khair Ya Shaikh.
