Listen Later

Jay Fleischman is joined by Adam Minsky, a fellow student loan lawyer based in Boston. During this episode, recorded live at FinCon16 in San Diego, we talk about:

  • Why only 40% of federal student loan borrowers are in an active repayment plan;
  • The reason why most people student loan borrowers rely on forbearance rather than repayment through one of the income-dependent repayment plans;
  • Understanding what kind of student loans you have;
  • The role of the servicer – and who else may be controlling your federal student loan;
  • Why servicers make so many errors;
  • The heartbreaking conversation we have with people trying for Public Service Loan Forgiveness; and
  • Why you should submit an Employment Certification Form – and the best time to do it.
