Public Service Loan Forgiveness Is On the Move

Earlier today, the Education Department announced it was pulling the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program from MOHELA and moving it to the Federal Student Aid Office.

Right now, the only details we have are an email and a blog post. More information will come out over the next several weeks about what this means and how it will work.

But for now, what we know is that starting May 1, PSLF form processing will be on hold. It should resume in July.

Had to get this out to you all quick. So I didn't have time to have our wonderful editor, Helena, put her love on it.

I am on year 9 of my PSLF- only 10 more months!

What if you are currently in the processing phase? Will they automatically stop processing your forgiveness After May 1st. What if you already submitted your paperwork in March or April?

I went to pay and I couldn't. My payment was 0.00 this month and it was $400.00...

Stanley…I just made 120 payments as of last month and I was about to submit my ECF this week. Should I wait to submit my form till after the processing pause to make sure nothing strange happens in the transition?

I asked about this on your last video...could you please explain why filing chapter 13 would cause issues with forgiveness? This was done in 2012 and my student loans were not included. I still made payments during this time.

I am getting ready to send in my first two packets for the first step for the loophole double consolidation. I was going to have Mohela as one of my servers because there are only 4 to choose from and I have to not submit to one twice. Should I still do this? Mohela is my server now I want to move one of the 3 to another server.
