New Year, New Student Debt Updates
What You Need to Know About Public Service Loan Forgiveness

Due to efforts by the Biden Administration, over 360,000 educators and public service workers have received $24 billion in student loan forgiveness through the Limited PSLF Waiver.
While the Limited Waiver expired on October 31, 2022, PSLF is still here for educators and other public service workers.
Significant permanent improvements have been made to the program, so that more educators can receive the debt forgiveness they were promised.
Meet the White House Student Debt Cancellation Plan

After hearing from educators and other advocates across the country, President Biden and the U.S. Department of Education announced a bold, life-changing student debt cancellation plan on behalf of 48 million student borrowers in America.
Under the White House’s student debt cancellation plan, most individuals, including current students, are eligible for up to $20,000 in federal student debt relief. What this plan does for borrowers across the U.S.:
- Cancels up to $10,000 in federal student debt for most individuals, including current students.
- Cancels up to $20,000 for Pell Grant recipients.
- Extended the interest payment pause.
- Creates a new and much-improved Income-Driven Repayment Plan
