Question

To receive a student discount on public transportation, one must present a student card and a valid study confirmation for the year תשפ"ג. I have a valid student card for the year תשפ"ג and a study confirmation valid for the year תשפ"ב. To renew the study confirmation, I need to pay 250 shekels to a recognized educational institution and purchase 30 study hours. Is it permissible to change the study confirmation from the year תשפ"ב to תשפ"ג since I have remaining courses from the year תשפ"ב?

Answer

It is not permissible to do so. Lying is forbidden.
