Also..... expect a double hit up here because if these organizations don't do what they want, IF the administration is allowed this power - the administration will claim these orgs are doing illegal things and deem them not eligible for #PSLF.
I believe this to my core.
Upcoming 2026 strategies for PSLF! Navigate new plans, understand employer rules, and act fast for Parent PLUS loans. Stay on track for forgiveness.

If the administration moves to restrict #PSLF as planned, borrowers’ mental and physical wellbeing are at risk. This group already reports elevated psychological distress; my surveys show suicidal ideation rates 4× the national rate — measured before this threat.

There are few researchers who know more about peoples' experiences in #PSLF than I do and so many on are edge right now because of the combination of #IDR repayment issues and the idea that maybe in a week their jobs no longer count for PSLF.

I am missing random months on my PSLF history. Has this happened to anyone else on here who has advice.
Yes I’m in the Fb group and on Reddit to see what others have done. But if one of you actual humans know something, I’d love to hear!

During my first wave of data collection for #PSLF my team interviewed 124 borrowers and one key feature they wanted to see and were happy to see when it was put into place - so they knew their progress was being tracked AND the payments were right (see this paper papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....)
Adam S. Minsky wrote about how the #Trump Administration isn't going to bring back the #IDR #PSLF tracker that was VERY well received by borrowers.

Proposed PSLF changes could hit teachers hardest.

Ending a key repayment program, backlogs in processing buy-backs and PSLF applications, and threatening to cut the Dept. Of Education altogether.
The US has failed student loan borrowers and Trump is driving the nail in the coffin.
#resist #student #loans #education #SAVE #PSLF
So people in the #SAVE forbearance will have to switch - no date yet. Who is confident in EDs ability to process these switches before people get screwed over?
I'm talking to borrowers on other filing concerns RE: #PSLF and moving from SAVE to other programs before the flood.
Zero confidence, here
@fetterman.senate.gov sent me back two responses one of which didn't even mention #highered, #studentloans or #pslf. And another that was about criminal justice reform which I do care about but didn't write him about. My state rep was kind but didn't offer any assistance.
From the #DOE or #MOHELA. #PSLF has so much red tape, and uncertainty that I honestly feel dumb for relying on it like it was a real thing. I've submitted numerous requests in the past year including those to restart my monthly payments.
Just so folks are aware the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program of #pslf is a mystical, magical lottery that bestows it gifts on some folks and not on others. I've officially hit one year since I have would have been eligible for #forgiveness and I have no heard a single substantive update
When I was still doing expungements (which I should maybe start doing again?), I did SO MANY of them for folks getting nursing licenses.
The new #PSLF rules claiming that nursing degrees are not professional are aimed at harming these people, at keeping them poor & desperate.
Folks!!! I need to bring attention to the rule changes being made for public service loan forgiveness. These new caps and definitions of whats a “professional,” will have tsunami-like impact on special education. #thepresidenthatesdisabledpoorkids #momsky #specialeducation #PSLF 1/2
Dept of Ed just stripped nurses, social workers, teachers & counselors of "professional" degree status for PSLF. Years of school + licenses = “not professional” now? Absolute bullshit. 😡 #PSLF #StudentLoans #DepartmentOfEducation
