Any word on student loan forgiveness?

Question

I understand that it's blocked right now. Has anyone here cashed out before then?

My problem is that I have not accumulated $20k+ in debt but I'm sure to get close as I keep going. So if it ever does get un-blocked, I hope I can still apply 5-10 years down the line.

Do keep in mind, that currently after graduation when the loans come due, there are programs you can get into where if you pay for 20 years, then whatever is left over is forgiven.

That has existed for a very long time. They say you only need to pay 10% of your disposable income each month.

You have to look into doing it right though, if you don't then it won't apply. Might want to make sure your on that program if you aren't sure.

As for the current debt transfer that Biden promised, I hope no one was given the money because of the SCOTUS rules against Biden they'll have to pay it back.

This is never going to happen. Democrats used it to buy votes and then found out Biden does not have the authority to give away that much money. I guess it is too late to get you vote back. Now e are stuck with these moonbats. Besides that, they have moved on to reparations for slavery that happened 170 years ago. maybe they can buy back the black vote.

From the reads of it, you have it wrong.

It's not really "loan forgiveness" but rather, a reduction on what you owe, based on set circumstances. So if you've blown out your credit and maxed out, but are expecting a "bank bailout" like we saw a few years ago for the corporations and banks - then you're mistaken.

Last I heard my application was processed and I was entitled to it, then they sent a notice that it was blocked because of litigation until at least June 2023, then they sent another email that my application wasn't processed because of the litigation.

The only thing I've supported the Democrats for since I was born and the mf Republicans have to fk it up lol

Yeah, I don't see how it is any different than me getting a loan for a nice $100k boat. Spending years having fun running around while 'learning' how it works and then years later claiming that because I didn't make any/enough money using it to sail tourists around, the tax payer needs to pay the debt off.

It was a 10,000 sucker bribe to get student's vote. Education is a Leftist Wing. They would lose their mind and the government could not absorb the loss. It was a Con and it comes up every Presidential election since I was 16 and entered my first parent paid university courses.

DarkWinterNights · Answer

If they actually cared about helping people get their loans paid off by predatory loaners. They should have eliminated interest and factored in all prior payments while giving tax credit to those who had already paid their loans off. This would have benefitted everyone. But they didn’t want that. They wanted people to vote Democrat in the mid-terms.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

The loan servicers, at least the government ones like Nelnet, automatically file an application for you, so you don’t have to worry about it. Realistically, student loan forgiveness probably won’t materialize. There’s just no legal justification for it.

Anonymous · Answer

Yea. Work hard and pay it off like the rest of us had to. I made sacrifices for years. No vacations, no extra spending on my self, hell went to food banks sometimes because money was so tight. Only way I see this being fair is if the govt then agrees to pay back all those that actually put in the work and paid theirs off. Otherwise it just feels like a big “F you” To the rest of us.

What would you say if your college loans were forgiven. But in order for that to happen. When you hang out your shingle at your college educated business. That was paid for by the average working taxpayer. You need to provide free services for one year to anyone that pays taxes that needs your expertise!

ArtemisSilver · Answer

It's probably not going to happen, it's too close to just buying votes. Hopefully your degree is in something productive that will pay for itself.

It’s illegal and he knows it. He only mentioned it at the midterms to get idiots like you to vote for a democrat. It’s not going to happen and he knows it. Even Pelosi said he can’t wipe out someone debt

LiamJHayden · Answer

It is not happening in its current form. The Constitution requires that such an act pass the House and Senate. The President does not have unilateral authority to forgive debts.

If you borrow money, you should plan to pay it back. Why should taxpayers pay your obligation?

joeldalton · Answer

You ain't getting loan forgiveness. I hope you didn't get suckered into voting democrat because of it.

msc545 · Answer

Yes. Those greedy, miserable fucking republicans have blocked it as they will block anything unless it helps the rich. Another reason to never vote for a Republican.
