Now, for a limited period of time, borrowers may receive credit for past payments made on loans that would otherwise not qualify for PSLF.
You can visit the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) which will help you determine if an employer is considered a qualifying employer. Highlights of the program:
- The U.S. Department of Education will be offering a temporary opportunity to give borrowers credit for prior payments they made that would not otherwise count toward PSLF: Any prior payments made while working for a qualifying employer will count as a qualifying payment, regardless of loan type or repayment plan. Please note that the application for the Limited PSLP Waiver, must be submitted by October 31, 2022.
- The Department will also allow months spent on active military duty to count towards PSLF, even if the service member's loans were on a deferment or forbearance rather than in active repayment.
In the coming weeks, servicers will receive updated information from FSA to help you navigate these changes. If you encounter challenges working with your loan servicer, you should contact the FSA Ombudsman by visiting StudentAid.gov/feedback.
