SEA UPDATE
Public Service Loan Forgiveness deadline is October 31
Don’t miss out on this one chance to save thousands of dollars by having your student loan balances forgiven.
What is it?
Temporary changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program rules that allow you to receive loan forgiveness you would never get under the current program rules.
· Missed payments? You qualify.
· Denied forgiveness in the past? You qualify.
· Making only partial payments on your loan? You qualify.
· Making $0 payments on an Income-Driven Repayment Plan? You qualify.
What do you need to do?
· If you have Direct Loans and have applied for PSLF, you don't need to do anything at this time.
· If you have Direct Loans and have NOT applied for PSLF, you need to apply.
What types of questions will you be asked?
· When did you borrow?
· What's your current repayment plan?
· What's your current balance?
· Have you ever consolidated?
