    We consulted with Student Loan planner in late July 2023. Our double consolidation process was completed in March 2024 and we are on SAVE now. We could have completed the double consolidation sooner but we wanted to figure out our tax situation first. The process is time consuming and detailed but our payments on SAVE are 1/3 of what they would have been.

    I also want to say your help was invaluable as I was able to successfully get the double consolidation completed and reduced my payment by more than half. It’s well worth the one hour session to get yourself started in the right direction!

    Thank you for a valuable tutorial on this step by step Parents Plus Double loop consolidation into a SAVE IDR plan. I did all what suggested processes up to the tee, got notification yesterday that my payments will be as exactly as the same as before double loop consolidation been done. What went wrong? It surely raises my anxiety and distress level up to the roof instantly. Please help!!

    I need help. I sent in 2 separate applications, one to Edfinancial & one to Mohela to start the double consolidation process. I just received mail from aidvantage for the 2 separate applications I sent. Do I need to reach out to aidvantage to cancel the consolidations? Because I picked mohela & Edfinancial as my servicers for the first step. Now im really worried this is wrong.

    My question revolves around only having 3 consolidation loan servicers to deal with. I currently have 3 parent loans with Mohela, but since I am taking a Fall 2024 parent loan I decided to start the consolidation process with only 2 of the loans because I wanted to use my 3rd loan with Mohela and combine that with the Fall 2024 parent loan I'm about to take so I would end up with 2 separate double consolidations. The first step of my first consolidation has been completed (with Aidvantage and EdFinancial), but as I am about the do the double consolidation I wondered since I still have one loan with Mohela and Mohela is my only choice to do the double consolidation with, will this double consolidation be approved for my 2 already consolidated loans? Or will Mohela see I currently have a Parent Loan with them and potentially revert them back to Parent Plus Loans?

    Daughter 1 just graduated. We had 4 years of parent plus loans. I have consolidated 2 years together and the other 2 years together. Now I have two consolidation loans and no parent loans. The payments are now coming due. I plan to do the loop hole consolidation to bring them together and to ultimately transition to the SAVE plan. I was planning on doing that now.
    Daughter 2 starts college this fall. We plan to take out more parent plus loans for her time in college.
    Question: Can I take out parent plus loan in July or August 2024 for the first semester. Apply for a second parent plus loan in November or December 2024 for second semester. Then in early 2025 consolidate those two........followed by taking this consolidation loan and combining them with the loans taken for daughter 1 and having all 5 years of loans under the SAVE plan by July 2025?

The spring semester loan will be disbursed in January. What do I do with that one? Can I wait until it is disbursed to do the online application and include that one with the 2 consolidated ones from the paper applications? Please advise

    Help! I divided my PLUS loans held by Nelnet and sent two paper apps to Edfinancial and one to Aidvantage. Aidvantage processed one sent to them. Then Aidvantage processed the other two sent to Edfinancial, but kept those two instead of sending to Edfinancial, so I now have two separate loans with Aidvantage. Can I still combine these two loans for the double consolidation loophole in six months?

      same. I sent my 2 paper consolidations: one to nelnet and one to aidadvantage. They consolidated my 2 consolidated loans seperately. Then I went and chose to consolidate those 2 and chose Mohela as my servicer for my final consolidation (double consolidation), this app was done on Feb. 23 and it hasn't been finalized yet. I am getting weird info: studentaid.gov says it was consolidated on July 17 with Aid advantage, but they need to give it to Mohela bc Mohela isn't able to consolidate at all, so they say that aidadvantage is getting all the consolidations then passing them back to the servicer you requested. I will keep you posted if my double consol goes through.
