Title: A quick discussion with Bruce Mesnekoff about loan forgiveness
1Tips for Federal Student Loan by Bruce
Mesnekoff A recent article by a leading daily
has revealed that nearly 2/3rd students that are
graduating from the American universities are
crippled with certain level of federal debt.
Another screaming headline viewed in a CNBC
article disclosed that approximately 24
millennials are expected to receive forgiveness
on their outstanding debt loan balances.
- The dizzying Federal student loan measures a
great percentage of the overall national debt,
which in turn is leading to several consequences,
including - Decelerating economic growth of the country
- Rising interest rates
- Limited access to capital
- In this light, a range of repayment
forgiveness programs have kicked off to
mitigate the financial debt burdens of the
Government-backed student loans. This article
attempts to share information on the list of
events that qualify a student to be either
discharged off or forgiven the federal loan for
higher education under the Federal student loan
forgiveness program. Heres how it goes!
2- Total and Permanent Disability or TPD Discharge
In this situation, a student is discharged from
the repayment of following loans on the basis of
their permanent and total disability - William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program
- Federal Perkins Loan Program
- Federal Family Education Loan Program
- Besides, such students are also discharged from
the obligation to complete their TEACH Grant
services. However, it is required to share
information on permanent disability with the
U.S. Education Department. The information
is later reviewed and evaluated on the basis
of following criteria to determine whether a
person qualifies for the TPD discharge - Submit an approved document from the
Veterans Affairs Department of the United
States to declare than an individual is
unemployable as a result of service related
disabilities. - Submit benefits received from Supplemental
Security Income and Social Security Disability
Insurance stating the next scheduled date of
disability review. - Submit a document from the certified physician
confirming permanently disability. - Death Discharge In the event of borrowers
death, the debt taken by the student will be
discharged. This means, the PLUS loan taken by
the parent would be discharged in case of death
of the parent or the student for whom loan was
obtained. A certified copy of death certificate
needs to be furnished by the family member to the
loan servicer. - Bankruptcy Under Chapter13 or Chapter7, if an
individual has filed for bankruptcy then the
obligation of loan repayment will be discharged.
This will be based on the following decisive
factors - The individual, if obligated to repay loan, would
be unable to sustain a required minimal standard
of living. - Submission of a significant evidence to verify
that the hardship would continue for a
considerable period of time. - A prudent attempt of minimum 5 years was made by
the individual to repay loan before filing for
the bankruptcy.
