How to Get Last-Minute Credit Added to Your PSLF Payment Count


Listen Later

You only have until October 31, 2022 to take advantage of the PSLF waiver before it expires. But it isn't too late to apply and get credit!

Senior Student Loan Advisor Meagan Landress, CSLP®, and I did a webinar very recently on last-minute application tips for the PSLF waiver, and hundreds of borrowers were there with us. In this episode, we're sharing the top tips from the webinar to help as many borrowers as possible get credit added to their PSLF payment count up until the last possible moment.

In today's episode, you'll find out:

  • What has changed with the PSLF waiver
  • What should you do if you have the wrong kind of loans
  • How to consolidate loans for the PSLF waiver
  • Do you have to use the PSLF Help Tool
  • What to do if you can't get a signature from your employer
  • What's the timeline for the PSLF waiver
  • The student loan cancellation lawsuits and what it means
  • Whether time worked in public service before you took out loans counts
  • If contract work for the state or government counts towards PSLF
  • When you need to update your income for IDR
  • What are the benefits of PAYE vs. REPAYE
