(Ep. 159) Answering Your Questions About the EICR Plan, the PSLF Waiver, and When to Recertify
12 min read
From the PSLF Waiver to the EICR plan to the debt mindset, there’s a lot we need to cover regarding student loans and loan forgiveness in 2022 and beyond. Join me as I answer a few listener questions you asked us via our podcast voicemail! I talk about recertification, why it’s so hard for undergrads to get student loan forgiveness, how to not feel so trapped by your debt, and more. Let’s all take a deep breath and get some answers!
In today’s episode, you’ll find out:
✅ How to navigate the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Waiver Program: Two of my six student loans were forgiven under the PSLF waiver, but why weren’t the other four forgiven when they should’ve all been qualified?
✅ How long will my $0 FedLoan payments last?
✅ How do I know when to recertify?
✅ What you need to know about the new Expanded Income-Contingent Repayment (EICR) Plan: How will it impact me? Is it only for undergraduate student loans?
✅ Why it’s so hard for undergrads to get student loan forgiveness.
✅ Why does debt make people feel trapped?
✅ How to shift your mindset to feel less trapped by student loans.
✅ And more!
