If your federal student loan(s) is in default, you probably realize that it is a serious situation. However, there may be options available to you. We can help you understand which alternatives fit your personal situation. Contact us at 855-810-4922.

Understanding Default

Have you received a Notice of Default? Defaulting on your federal student loan(s) is a serious matter. The federal government can seize your tax refunds. Your loan holder(s) can garnish up to 15% of your wages. The default may be reported to the national consumer reporting agencies (aka credit bureaus).

Learn More

Default Repayment Plan

Setting up a repayment plan acceptable to your loan holder(s) can protect you from some of the consequences of default, like administrative wage garnishment and withholding of your tax refunds and government payments.

Pay in Full

Paying your outstanding loan(s) in full has advantages.

Student Loans Are Unlike Most Other Debts

They are not automatically discharged unless the bankruptcy court finds an undue hardship in a separate adversary proceeding. Find out how your student loan(s) is impacted by bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy and Student Loans

Filing for bankruptcy is a difficult decision. Before you file, you should understand how bankruptcy will impact your student loan(s).

Learn More

During Bankruptcy

While you’re in bankruptcy, you aren’t required to make direct regular monthly payments on your student loan(s) unless your bankruptcy plan provides for direct payment outside of your Chapter 13 plan. Your student loan creditors may be scheduled to receive a distribution from your Chapter 13 trustee. Regardless, interest on the student loan(s) continues to accrue.

Learn More

After Bankruptcy

If you have an outstanding student loan(s), once you’re out of bankruptcy, it may be time to start paying it back. But who owns your loan(s)? And how much do you owe? We can help you navigate the post-bankruptcy complexities.
