I can’t afford student loans unless my real expenses are taken into account first, which I have read they no longer will be a deciding factor in our payment calculations, just based on income even if 98% of your income already goes to staying alive, roof over your head, clothes, insurance premiums etc.Federal Direct ConsolidationSaving on A Valuable Education (SAVE)$1,001+Prior�e�`2

�33$150,001 or more$150,001 or moreThe emotional impact of my student loan debt has been overwhelming and all-consuming. What should have been a path toward public service and stability has instead created a constant sense of fear, anxiety, and hopelessness. With payments increasing by 566%, I feel like every aspect of my life is being put on hold.
I have not been able to even consider starting a family because I cannot imagine how I could provide for children when my loan payments consume such a disproportionate share of my income. I cannot buy a home, even a modest one, and remain living at home in order to help care for my disabled family members while trying to keep up with these debts. I have also had to pass up opportunities for more fulfilling or impactful work, because public service jobs already pay below a living wage, and the weight of these loans forces me to prioritize financial survival over professional growth or passion.
The constant burden of this debt has taken a serious toll on my mental health. The stress and uncertainty make it difficult to plan for the future, and I often feel like I am falling further behind in life compared to my peers. It has strained relationships as well—I feel guilty for not being able to contribute equally or pursue milestones like marriage, children, or homeownership.
Instead of feeling proud of my years of public service, I feel punished for choosing this path. The emotional impact is not just about money—it is about the dreams, milestones, and sense of security that this debt has stolen.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Tuition or school supplies, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, intern ��U�3

First and foremost, I would be able to start a family of my own. Like many of my peers, I have put off having children because I cannot financially support them under my current debt load.

Instead, I remain living at home supporting two disabled parents and a disabled sibling, with no chance of homeownership or independence while my loan payments rise over 566.5%.\n\nIf relieved of these unsustainable payments, I would also have the freedom to remain in public service—work that aligns with federal goals of ensuring health, safety, and justice. Without relief, many public servants like me are being forced out of the very careers the federal government depends on to function.\n\nI cannot help but notice the inequities: businesses had PPP loans forgiven, and certain federal agencies now offer student loan forgiveness as recruitment tools. Yet those of us who already answered the call to public service, and who remain in it despite low pay, are denied the same fairness. Why is it constitutional to forgive loans for business owners or incentivize ICE recruitment with forgiveness, but unconstitutional to do the same for public servants across the board?\n\nWithout these payments, I would be investing in the exact things the federal government says it wants to encourage: family, housing, health, and long-term economic stability.","story":"","key_quote":"","story_type":"","story_category":"","platform_fit":"","story_strength":0,"press_pitch_angle":"","sharing_consent":"","press_ready":"","is_voter":"Yes, I vote in every or almost every election","voted_2024":"Yes","plan_vote_2026":"Yes","civic_action_impact":"Strongly agree – I am much more likely to take civic or political action","govt_trust_impact":"","trust_servicer":"","trust_dept_ed":"Strongly disagree","trusted_sources":"","aware_phaseout":"Yes, but I do not plan on taking action","counting_forgiveness":"Yes, through Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)","forgiveness_program":"","concern_inflation":"Strongly agree","default_experiences":"","utm_campaign":"SDCCList","submitted_at":"1/1/0001 0:00:00","candidate_score":80,"tier":"A"}2026-03-12 18:09:182026-03-12 18:09:18

This SAVE forbearance has been a nightmare, i thought I would finally qualify for PSLF in February 2028 but the SAVE forbearance put an end to that. I am scared to get out of the forbearance because I am not certain that I will be able to afford my student loan payments. I am uncertain of what to do and do not know where to go for reliable advice.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Childcare (formal facility, paying family or caregiver directly), Healthcare or medicine, Tuition or school supplies, Vehicle payments, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Paying down credit cards or other debts, Charitable donations, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investmentsI would be saving fo 4�0�a2

The program is so confusing the services give me the run around all the time. There’s constant swings on guidance then changes and it just feels like no relief in sight. I’m unable to really invest in my future because the debt relief I was promised was not fulfilled. I feel like I was targeted as a student with no financial literacy due to my cultural background. I thought we were the generation that would fulfill our parents dreams but I’m stuck in student debt in a low paying job. I choose to still believe there will be positive improvements to PSLF and I enjoy the education field but the PSLF program in its entirety has really set me back.Food (grocerie P�A� 1

After years of promises for comprehensive student loan forgiveness, the government's most ambitious plan was struck down by the Supreme Court, leaving millions of borrowers in limbo. This defeat was more than a legal setback; it was a powerful symbol of how a bipartisan problem has been co-opted for political gain, with both sides failing to deliver a meaningful and lasting solution.\n\nInstead of broad-based forgiveness, the focus has pivoted to complex and convoluted repayment programs like the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan. While these plans are presented as a lifeline, they have become mired in administrative and legal challenges. Lawsuits have repeatedly thrown their implementation into disarray, creating a climate of confusion and financial uncertainty for borrowers. The constant back-and-forth between federal courts and the Department of Education demonstrates a fundamental lack of consensus and a willingness to use the issue as a political football, rather than a matter of urgent public concern. Borrowers, who were promised relief, are instead forced to navigate a labyrinth of ever-changing rules, forbearances, and a renewed onslaught of interest accrual.\n\nThis inability to enact a stable, effective solution is corrosive to public trust. It showcases a government that can promise grand change but cannot execute it, leaving everyday citizens to pay the price. The student debt crisis has been transformed from a solvable economic problem into a political tool, with each new policy change serving more as a talking point than as a genuine attempt at relief. The result is a generation of borrowers who are not just financially indebted, but also deeply cynical about the government’s capacity to address major societal challenges. They see that the promises made during a campaign are easily undone by court rulings and bureaucratic infighting, making it impossible to believe that a meaningful path forward exists.","trust_servicer":"","trust_dept_ed":"Strongly agree","trusted_sources":"","aware_phaseout":"Yes, and I have an application pending to switch repayment plans","counting_forgiveness":"Yes, through Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)","forgiveness_program":"","concern_inflation":"Strongly agree","default_experiences":"","utm_campaign":"","submitted_at":"8/20/2025 20:45:29","candidate_score":70,"tier":"A"}2026-03-12 18:09:182026-03-12 18:09:18

Now they are phasing out affordable payment plans and if you can't afford the payment, they will garnish your wages. It's clear that this current Dept of Ed wants people to default on their loans.

Now they want to take away PSLF. People were promised PSLF prior to taking out loans, if they worked in certain low paying public service jobs and now they are going back on their promise?

The domino effect they are creating is extremely alarming. I would move out of the country, if I could.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electri �

�u33$100,001 - $150,000��I�$100,001 - $150,000Carrying this student loan debt has taken a heavy emotional toll. I’ve spent years working in public service with the promise of eventual forgiveness through PSLF, but the ongoing administrative errors, delays, and constant changes to repayment plans have left me feeling anxious, powerless, and distrustful of the system. Instead of feeling stable in my career choice, I constantly worry about whether my progress will be recognized or erased due to technicalities.
The stress bleeds into other areas of my life. I experience increased anxiety, trouble sleeping, and periods of depression directly tied to the uncertainty of my loans. It also strains my relationships—financial insecurity makes it harder to plan a future, contribute fully at home, or feel like I can invest in my well-being.
Most difficult of all, it feels demoralizing. I chose public service because I believe in helping people, but instead of being supported, I often feel punished for that choice. The debt has become not just a financial burden, but an ongoing source of emotional distress that impacts my mental health, my relationships, and my quality of life.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investmentsIf I did not have to make student loan payments, I would use that money to meet essential needs and build a stable financial future. Right now, student loans consume income that could otherwise go toward reducing everyday stressors and investing in my well-being.
Specifically, I would allocate the funds toward:
Basic living costs (housing, utilities, and groceries), which would provide immediate relief and stability.
Healthcare expenses and mental health support, which are often delayed or sacrificed because of loan payments.
Emergency savings and retirement contributions, so I could feel secure about the future instead of constantly behind.
Home and family needs, such as maintaining my house, supporting loved ones, and covering unexpected costs without turning to credit.
Freeing up this money would allow me to focus more on my work and community without the constant financial anxiety that debt brings. Instead of loans dictating my financial priorities, I would finally be able to create stability and invest in a healthier, more sustainable future.Federal Direct Undergraduate, Federal Direct ConsolidationSaving on A Valuable Education (SAVE)$02010-2015UA{"id":1626,"first_name":"","last_name":"","email":"","zip_code":"","age":"","marital_status":"","household_size":"","employment":"","race_ethnicity":"","gender":"","education":"","income_raw":"","income_type":"","income_range":"","income_amount_low":0,"income_amount_high":0,"has_federal":"Yes, I have unpaid FEDERAL student loans","loan_types_raw":"Federal Direct Undergraduate, Federal Direct Consolidation","loan_type_list":["Federal Direct Undergraduate","Federal Direct Consolidation"],"has_undergraduate":true,"has_graduate":true,"has_parent_plus":false,"has_perkins":false,"has_consolidation":true,"first_loan_year":"2010-2015","repayment_plan":"Saving on A Valua �

�o33$100,001 - $150,000��I�$100,001 - $150,000Carrying this student loan debt has taken a heavy emotional toll. I’ve spent years working in public service with the promise of eventual forgiveness through PSLF, but the ongoing administrative errors, delays, and constant changes to repayment plans have left me feeling anxious, powerless, and distrustful of the system. Instead of feeling stable in my career choice, I constantly worry about whether my progress will be recognized or erased due to technicalities.
The stress bleeds into other areas of my life. I experience increased anxiety, trouble sleeping, and periods of depression directly tied to the uncertainty of my loans. It also strains my relationships—financial insecurity makes it harder to plan a future, contribute fully at home, or feel like I can invest in my well-being.
Most difficult of all, it feels demoralizing. I chose public service because I believe in helping people, but instead of being supported, I often feel punished for that choice. The debt has become not just a financial burden, but an ongoing source of emotional distress that impacts my mental health, my relationships, and my quality of life.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investmentsIf I did not have to make student loan payments, I would use that money to meet essential needs and build a stable financial future. Right now, student loans consume income that could otherwise go toward reducing everyday stressors and investing in my well-being.
Specifically, I would allocate the funds toward:
Basic living costs (housing, utilities, and groceries), which would provide immediate relief and stability.
Healthcare expenses and mental health support, which are often delayed or sacrificed because of loan payments.
Emergency savings and retirement contributions, so I could feel secure about the future instead of constantly behind.
Home and family needs, such as maintaining my house, supporting loved ones, and covering unexpected costs without turning to credit.
Freeing up this money would allow me to focus more on my work and community without the constant financial anxiety that debt brings. Instead of loans dictating my financial priorities, I would finally be able to create stability and invest in a healthier, more sustainable future.Yes, I vote in every or almost every electionFederal Direct Undergraduate, Federal Direct ConsolidationSaving on A Valuable Education (SAVE)$02010-2015ZA{"id":1646,"first_name":"","last_name":"","email":"","zip_code":"","age":"","marital_status":"","household_size":"","employment":"","race_ethnicity":"","gender":"","education":"","income_raw":"","income_type":"","income_range":"","income_amount_low":0,"income_amount_high":0,"has_federal":"Yes, I have unpaid FEDERAL student loans","loan_types_raw":"Federal Direct Undergraduate, Federal Direct Consolidation","loan_type_list":["Federal Direct Undergraduate","Federal Direct Consolidation"],"has_undergraduate":true,"has_graduate":true,"has_parent_plus":false,"has_perkins":false,"has_consolidation":true,"first_loan_year":"2010-2015","repayment_plan":"Saving on A Valuable Education (SAVE)","monthly_payment":"$0","repayment_status":"My loans are in a forbearance or deferment (NOT including in �

I’ve spent years working in public service with the promise of eventual forgiveness through PSLF, but the ongoing administrative errors, delays, and constant changes to repayment plans have left me feeling anxious, powerless, and distrustful of the system. Instead of feeling stable in my career choice, I constantly worry about whether my progress will be recognized or erased due to technicalities.\n\nThe stress bleeds into other areas of my life. I experience increased anxiety, trouble sleeping, and periods of depression directly tied to the uncertainty of my loans. It also strains my relationships—financial insecurity makes it harder to plan a future, contribute fully at home, or feel like I can invest in my well-being.\n\nMost difficult of all, it feels demoralizing. I chose public service because I believe in helping people, but instead of being supported, I often feel punished for that choice. The debt has become not just a financial burden, but an ongoing source of emotional distress that impacts my mental health, my relationships, and my quality of life.","affordability_impacts_raw":"Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investments","affordability_list":["Food (groceries","eating out","take out)","Healthcare or medicine","Rent or Mortgage","Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas","electricity","cable","internet","cellphone)","Vehicle payments","Paying down credit cards or other debts","Financially support family or friends","Savings","retirement","or investments"],"affordability_count":16,"aff_food":true,"aff_healthcare":true,"aff_housing":true,"aff_savings":true,"aff_childcare":false,"aff_education":false,"aff_debt":true,"aff_charity":false,"alt_spending":"If I did not have to make student loan payments, I would use that money to meet essential needs and build a stable financial future.

Instead of loans dictating my financial priorities, I would finally be able to create stability and invest in a healthier, more sustainable future.","story":"","key_quote":"","story_type":"","story_category":"","platform_fit":"","story_strength":0,"press_pitch_angle":"","sharing_consent":"","press_ready":"","is_voter":"Yes, I vote in every or almost every election","voted_2024":"Yes","plan_vote_2026":"Yes","civic_action_impact":"Strongly agree – I am much more likely to take civic or political action","govt_trust_impact":"","trust_servicer":"","trust_dept_ed":"Strongly disagree","trusted_sources":"","aware_phaseout":"Yes, and I plan on taking action, but have not yet","counting_forgiveness":"Yes, through Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)","forgiveness_program":"","concern_inflation":"Strongly agree","default_experiences":"","utm_campaign":"SDCCList","submitted_at":"1/1/0001 0:00:00","candidate_score":90,"tier":"A"}2026-03-12 18:09:182026-03-12 18:09:18

�g33$22,001 - $40,000U� �@$22,001 - $40,000The current status of Dept of Ed & Student loans is causing great anxiety. Interest is calculated daily like a credit card and not like a mortgage, so the balance grows high very quickly. Now they are phasing out affordable payment plans and if you can't afford the payment, they will garnish your wages. It's clear that this current Dept of Ed wants people to default on their loans.
Why is no one talking about how interest is being calculated?!
Now they want to take away PSLF. People were promised PSLF prior to taking out loans, if they worked in certain low paying public service jobs and now they are going back on their promise?
These rich, inexperienced people running the Dept of Ed are completely out of touch and cruelty is their point.
I have no idea what plan I can even sign up for. Studentaid.gov provides conflicting info from what Mohela provides.
The domino effect they are creating is extremely alarming. I would move out of the country, if I could.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Charitable donations, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retire �

I only have 8 more months left before my PSLF loans will be forgiven. I have no idea what is going on. My plans went into deferment, but I still pay, but have no idea if they are counted. I had a mastectomy in October 2024 and when that happened apparently a lot of changes were made to the program. I have turned in form after form showing I am still employed at a PSLF institution, but it always said my PSLF forms are processing and sometimes it says I'm not eligible. When I go to my MOHELA account, it tells me I need to check with FedLoan for processing. Then when I go to FedLoan, it tells me to check with MOHELA for processing....None of it makes sense and I am so stressed out about this.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Childcare (formal facility, paying family or caregiver directly), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (n �T�3

I became an attorney and took on substantial student loan debt to do so, because I wanted to serve the public. I do that now in my role, but public servant salaries are substantially lower than the private sector. But to be frank, the loans would be exponentially more expensive if I moved to the private sector. Either way, I am screwed - especially if PSLF is at risk.Childcare (formal facility, paying family or caregiver directly), Healthcare or medicine, Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Charitable donations, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investments, Tuition or school suppliesIn the absence of student loan obligations, I would be able to afford to buy a home again.

I am a first-generation college graduate. I had no clue what I was getting into with taking on student loans. I graduated 10 years ago with $35,000 in debt and even while making payments (set by my servicer), I was not even matching the interest which has resulted in my loans growing to $45,000 now. I have applied to get into repayment but can't get in touch with anyone to get answers. I have submitted multiple reconsideration requests, I have called so many times to try to get an understanding of why payments are missing or why certain periods of repayment are missing but no one seems to have answers. It has been emotionally and mentally exhausting to try to stay on top of all the changes, get my needs met, and do the right thing. I took loans with the intent of paying them but my hands are tied when I call Fed Aid and the phone prompts take you in circles and won't allow you to talk to anyone and they never respond to emails. My application to reenter payment was submitted way over 90 days ago and I have not heard anything. How are we supposed to do the right thing and pay our loans if there is no one to process the paper work and no one to talk to?

I received a full scholarship to attend my local community college so no debt for first 2 years. That loan was easy for me to pay back and affordable. Fast forward to the Great Recession where I was one of the long-term unemployed and I lost everything, all my assets. I moved from Chicago to NW Arkansas to start over. I decided to go back to school. I went to a community college for classes to get into nursing school. I was accepted but changed my mind to pursue microbiology instead. I graduated with another associates degree in 2013. This time my loans were $16k and they have now ballooned to $25k due to interest! I was placed in a SAVE and still in forbearance but now interest started again and that debt is rising. I applied through Savi, offered through the NEA, and my app to switch to IBR is still pending since June. I am teaching school again and am eligible for PLSF but have not been able to pay anything towards that. At this point, with me being 8 years from retirement, I am giving up hope. I recently did my estate planning and I am very concerned that the government will use probate 8

While I am able to cover the cost of my education, the burden of over $300,000 to become a psychologist, coupled with the constant criticism of seeking financial assistance, is overwhelming. It is terrible to know this is in the hands of others that do not seem to know my story or how this impacts me. Why do we want to do this to students that want to help others for a living. \nFurthermore, I have accrued interest on my loans while working as a postdoctoral intern, and my loans were automatically transitioned to the SAVE plan, I had no say and even if I did they took away the plan I was on. Unfortunately, my current plan is scheduled to be discontinued. I am seeking alternative loan options that offer income-based repayment plans with the flexibility to adjust the term as I progress in my repayment journey. If such a situation were to occur with mortgages, class-action lawyers would likely pursue legal action. I had an agreement and I had no idea acts of congress were able to change binding agreements that were signed over a decade ago.

While I am able to cover the cost of my education, the burden of over $300,000 to become a psychologist, coupled with the constant criticism of seeking financial assistance, is overwhelming. It is terrible to know this is in the hands of others that do not seem to know my story or how this impacts me. Why do we want to do this to students that want to help others for a living.
Furthermore, I have accrued interest on my loans while working as a postdoctoral intern, and my loans were automatically transitioned to the SAVE plan, I had no say and even if I did they took away the plan I was on. Unfortunately, my current plan is scheduled to be discontinued. I am seeking alternative loan options that offer income-based repayment plans with the flexibility to adjust the term as I progress in my repayment journey. If such a situation were to occur with mortgages, class-action lawyers would likely pursue legal action. I had an agreement and I had no idea acts of congress were able to change binding agreements that were signed over a decade ago. We are not going to have doctors soon if we keep doing this to front line workers and health care workers.Childcare (formal facility, paying family or caregiver directly), Healthcare or medicine, Rent or Mortgage, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Charitable donations, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investments

I received a full scholarship to attend my local community college so no debt for first 2 years. That loan was easy for me to pay back and affordable. Fast forward to the Great Recession where I was one of the long-term unemployed and I lost everything, all my assets. I moved from Chicago to NW Arkansas to start over. I decided to go back to school. I went to a community college for classes to get into nursing school. I was accepted but changed my mind to pursue microbiology instead. I graduated with another associates degree in 2013. This time my loans were $16k and they have now ballooned to $25k due to interest! I was placed in a SAVE and still in forbearance but now interest started again and that debt is rising. I applied through Savi, offered through the NEA, and my app to switch to IBR is still pending since June. I am teaching school again and am eligible for PLSF but have not been able to pay anything towards that. At this point, with me being 8 years from retirement, I am giving up hope. I recently did my estate planning and I am very concerned that the government will use probate to take all of my retirement money after I die and my loved ones will get nothing.

�m33$150,001 or more$150,001 or moreOver the past few months, I have encountered numerous challenges. I was previously unaware of the application for the Sweet vs Cordova (now different name). Additionally, there were difficulties submitting my application, as I had to complete the form three times before it was accepted. Consequently, I was six or seven days late, which was considered post-class. Currently, I am waiting on that answer as if my life depends on it as it affects my entire family which they did not sign up for. This is causing significant stress. Furthermore, I am being charged interest on my loan, due to SAVE being in courts. How is ok to charge interst when my only option for a plan would more than triple my monthly payment. It say the average American will pay 250-300 more a month, I would be paying 700-1300 more a month. My most recent payment amount was approximately $684.
Upon reviewing the new plans, I discovered that I will be required to pay approximately $2,000 per month on the option now available to stay on an income based plan, which I need to do to as my loans will be written off in 9 years and six months if borrowers defense does not clear me 100% in post class. It is important to note that my current G Iloans exceed $300,000. While I was enrolled on the income-based plan, the loans balance did not decrease in all my years of paying. Despite having good credit and loans in good standing, I am unable to afford the monthly payment of $2,000 without harming my family.
Although I have paid the full cost of my schooling during the years I have been paying off my student loans, the accumulation of interest has substantially increased my debt. While I am able to cover the cost of my education, the burden of over $300,000 to become a psychologist, coupled with the constant criticism of seeking financial assistance, is overwhelming. It is terrible to know this is in the hands of others that do not seem to know my story or how this impacts me. Why do we want to do this to students that want to help others for a living.
Furthermore, I have accrued interest on my loans while working as a postdoctoral intern, and my loans were automatically transitioned to the SAVE plan, I had no say and even if I did they took away the plan I was on. Unfortunately, my current plan is scheduled to be discontinued. I am seeking alternative loan options that offer income-based repayment plans with the flexibility to adjust the term as I progress in my repayment journey. If such a situation were to occur with mortgages, class-action lawyers would likely pursue legal action. I had an agreement and I had no idea acts of congress were able to change binding agreements that were signed over a decade ago.

My wife and I are both educators. We both have student loans and can barely afford to live as it is with no payments going out. We have no idea how we will be able to afford student loans. As special education teachers, along with a daughter who works in special education and another daughter who is a social worker, we took careers trying to help people. Now we are stuck deciding between paying the $3500 mortgage on a mobile home or paying off student loans. We lose either way. If we choose to pay the mortgage we get our wages garnished.. And then can't pay the bills anyway.. It's a terrible play to be. Cost of living has tripled in the past 5 years. We can't survive this way.Food (groceries, eating out, take out), Rent or Mortgage, Utilities and telecommunications (natural gas, electricity, cable, internet, cellphone), Vehicle payments, Paying down credit cards or other debts, Charitable donations, Financially support family or friends, Savings, retirement, or investments, Healthcare or medicineWe can barely survive while in deferment. Not having payments just barely keeps us afloat. My car is 20 years old. My house is a mobile home in the boonies. We make decent money. Everything else is just far too high. I'm a first time home owner at 46..snd my mortgage rate (VA loan) makes my mortgage almost 3500 because of the high percentage. Food costs, over 1200 per month, even with budgeting.. I drive 3 hours daily just to work.. Gas is over 5 dollars per gallon. It's all completely miserable.I explained this above. I have now ah of paying back these loans with our current economic status.

Anytime I log in or read about changes I'm filled with anxiety and anger. I owe more than I originally borrowed because of interest and it's infuriating. With the pandemic and then the SAVE litigation I've rarely had payments due in the last several years and we already live paycheck to paycheck due to childcare costs. I'm very stressed about what my monthly payment will be and I highly doubt we'll be able to afford it. My husband is in a similar situation. He owes more than 20k than what he originally borrowed. It's ridiculous.Paying down credit cards or other debts, Savings, retirement, or investmentsPaying down other debt, putting more into our daughters savings account and our retirement savings.I am a first generation college student. I did not get enough financial aid through FASFA because at the time my dads $65k per year salary was above poverty levels and did not qualify even though my family was far from being able to afford college tuition. I went t { }o sign up for classes and my college informed me I didn't have enough aid and in order to sign up and start school I had to take out private student loans. It was very stressful and confusing to both my parents and I, however, that's what we did. So I had to have federal and private student loans to get my bachelors degree in social work. I graduated with a BSW with around 30k of debt to get a case manager job of $12/hour. I went back to school for my graduate degree and had to take out another $18k for an accelerated masters program that I qualified for based on my undergrad gpa. Around tbis time, is when they passed the public student loan forgiveness program which initially gave me optimism. I continued to serve my community via public and community mental health programs. While my loan balance continued to increase due to interest charges that were far beyond my IBR payments since I was making between $45k and 50k per year as a social worker with a graduate degree. Most other health professionals with graduate degrees make 6 figures. Anywho, when lawsuits started happening for the first wave of 10 years of PSLF qualifying (teachers etc) I realized I wasn't going to count on PSLF ever happening for me and wanted to pursue a higher income which meant leaving public and community mental health for private practice. I had renewed hope with the SAVE program, however, now that's gone or will be soon. It all feels so hopeless. I do not understand why congress hasn't introduced a permanent 0% interest on loans, and just have student borrowers pay back the exact dollar they borrowed for school. Many people in my position are willing to pay back what we actually borrowed dollar for dollar to earn our degree. I wish interest charges would be deducted from balances, payments made on the life of the loan count, and then re configure what is still owed. It seems the most equitable, reasonable and straight forward way to manage this for everyone involved. Otherwise I fear myself and everyone else will be indebted with student loan debt until we die.

Currently, I am waiting on that answer as if my life depends on it as it affects my entire family which they did not sign up for. This is causing significant stress. Furthermore, I am being charged interest on my loan, due to SAVE being in courts. How is ok to charge interst when my only option for a plan would more than triple my monthly payment. It say the average American will pay 250-300 more a month, I would be paying 700-1300 more a month. My most recent payment amount was approximately $684.
Upon reviewing the new plans, I discovered that I will be required to pay approximately $2,000 per month on the option now available to stay on an income based plan, which I need to do to as my loans will be written off in 9 years and six months if borrowers defense does not clear me 100% in post class. It is important to note that my current loans exceed $300,000. While I was enrolled on the income-based plan, the loans balance did not decrease in all my years of paying. Despite having good credit and loans in good standing, I am unable to afford the monthly payment of $2,000 without harming my family.
Although I have paid the full cost of my schooling during the years I have been paying off my student loans, the accumulation of interest has substantially increased my debt. While I am able to cover the cost of my education, the burden of over $300,000 to become a psychologist, coupled with the constant criticism of seeking financial assistance, is overwhelming. It is terrible to know this is in the hands of others that do not seem to know my story or how this impacts me. Why do we want to do this to students that want to help others for a living.
Furthermore, I have accrued interest on my loans while working as a postdoctoral intern, and my loans were automatically transitioned to the SAVE plan, I had no say and even if I did they took away the plan I was on. Unfortunately, my current plan is scheduled to be discontinued. I am seeking alternative loan options that offer income-based repayment plans with the flexibility to adjust the term as I progress in my repayment journey. If such a situation were to occur with mortgages, class-action lawyers would likely pursue legal action.

�]33$100,001 - $150,000��I�$100,001 - $150,000At this point I don't know how I will cover the monthly payment. I'm 63 years old, single and have worked full time for the same company for the past 14 years but my income (though extremely modest) is capped out on my employer's pay scale. I do have health insurance, which is one reason I've remained at this job. At this age, changing jobs (let alone careers) has proven very challenging. The student aid.gov loan simulator estimated my new payments at $279/mo. With a $45000 annual income monthly apt rent (500 sq ft studio in SW WA state) increasing this fall to $1100/mo, I will need to borrow money to cover these increased costs. Under the SAVE plan, my monthly payment was $0 as my debt to income ratio was so high and I was on track for the balance to be forgiven via IDR forgiveness in 4 years and 10 months as of Feb 2025. Since SAVE was dismantled and interest has begun to accrue, I was encouraged by EdFinancial staff to switch to another repayment plan to avoid a ballooning balance. Since the RAP will not be available until a year from now, the only other option remotely practical was the IBR plan. I have applied and am awaiting response. This will be the highest student loan payment i have ever had. Recent changes made in the repayment system have completely undone the one window of opportunity I had to relieve myself of student loan debt. I have nothing saved for retirement and own no property. My physical and mental health have been adversely affected by emotional stress from the uncertainty and the sense of dread, shame, and hopelessness I feel at all times. I have forgone health care, traveling out of state to family gatherings, nearly all social gatherings, basic necessities such as clothing and even at times food as I've tried to pay off as much credit card debt (O percent interest promo rates) as possible before the new payments take effect.

It is the interest that has made it very difficult to lower my debt. Or interest should stop accruing after so many years. Education should be free. Education is needed for people to rise out of poverty. I was working and still needed loans to help pay rent, food, gas, and school supplies. I had no one to put my fees on a credit card or a trust to pay my tuition and expenses. I also was a victim of a student loan forgiveness scam when trying to lower my student loan debt. I don't trust much information now or companies. Dismantling the Department of Education makes it even harder to find trusted information. When I acquired these loans, the prevailing notion was that it's ok. You'll just be paying until you die. No one said anything about these interest rates or the fact that not all borrowers obtain high paying jobs to start paying down debt after graduation.Yes, with lawmakers, Yes, with pressYes, I vote in every or almost every electionEmployed full-timeGraduate or Professional degreeBlack / African-AmericanFemaleSingle (Never married)3Federal Direct ConsolidationSaving on A Valuable Education (SAVE)$1 - $100Prior to 1998dA{"id":2579,"first_name":"I am an individual trying to do the right thing and manage my responsibilities.

I had no one to put my fees on a credit card or a trust to pay my tuition and expenses. I also was a victim of a student loan forgiveness scam when trying to lower my student loan debt. I don't trust much information now or companies. Dismantling the Department of Education makes it even harder to find trusted information.
