    Hi, I’ve worked in the public sector for years. Making those student loan payments were extremely difficult but God…graduated in 2007 with a Masters Degree. Total cost was $55k but due to interest and not having the income to always pay the monthly payments, it ballooned to about $90k+…long story short, MY LOANS WERE FINALLY FORGIVEN IN January 2023! I’m still praying and decreeing total student loan debt collection for ALL borrowers🙏

      That's wonderful. And while you're out of debt, millions still don't have health insurance! That POS Biden can find billions to help you but, people are dying because they can't get health care!

    Mine were forgiven also in Feb 2023. I was in that 1995 - early 2000’s group in school. I was in forbearance for years but did eventually get on the income based repayment plan and had been paying. Started with Sallie Mae to Navient to Aidvantage to Mohela with public service loan forgiveness.

    I'm unclear on what everyone is calling "forgiveness."
    Does the lender get stuck with a loss, or did the lenders get paid off?

    • @malstarrainbow
      @malstarrainbow 8 місяців тому

      They get nothing. You are forgiven. What you were going to owe you no longer would owe. The forgiven loan is reported on 1099-C and depending on the tax laws in your state you would then be responsible for taxes on that loan forgiveness.

    ASA FAMILY :
    CUT THE CHECK AND WE’LL PAY YOU BACK , FROM ALL THAT WEALTH YOU OWE US .
    Blah blah blah , it’s all bs .
    If we’re living in a cave or under a rock somewhere and we owe the government a cent they have no problems finding us , but if we make a mistake in something that doesn’t benefit us or aren’t aware or connected to this or that program they just created we’re screwed .
    On the other hand they can make all the mistakes in world that benefits them and penalties us , all because we didn’t know about this program or opportunity or that program or opportunity .
    It’s all bs because WS has worked exactly the way it was designed to work , they play stupid and it’s always at our expense , but just cleaning the slate clean for those who are in debt from their student loans is to complicated for the educated fools running this nation .
    Wartime they have no problem finding us to fight for them no matter where we are , creditor have no problem finding us when we owe them no matter where we are , but when something they can do that’ll benefit us all of a sudden they can’t find us or there’s a glitch in their calculation or system .
    Blah blah blah , it’s all bs .
    B1 and reparations across the board family , in the form of CASH payments also , and in the same CASH way they originally stolen it from us FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS .

    I was one that qualified for the cancellation and even applied, but it sure isn't going to happen. All that talk is just platitudes. Even NESARA won't happen unless the great solar flash comes in and removes a lot of people to 5D. Disappearing and leaving the rest to argue over money. It is all on the system; no reason to investigate or complain. I show on that site that I had the extra thing to qualify for complete dismissal, but they don't care. I had that direct loan plus the Pell Grant recipient and that is supposed to qualify for the full forgiveness. Nothing doing. A lot of people were covered but not me.
