☆ How to Pay Off Your Student Loans Fast
  + stars: | 2023-09-10 | by ( Rebecca Safier | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +11 min
5 strategies to pay off your student loans ahead of scheduleMore than half of students take out student loans to pay for college, with the average debt load upon graduation totaling nearly $30,000. Be cautious about refinancing federal student loans: Doing so means sacrificing federal repayment plans and other protections. Pay off interest during school and your grace periodInterest starts accruing on most student loans, such as federal unsubsidized loans and private student loans, from the day they are paid out (known as the disbursement date), usually at the beginning of each semester. Pursue student loan forgiveness and assistanceIf you’re open to switching jobs, consider pursuing a role that would make you eligible for student loan forgiveness or assistance. If you have federal student loans, you may need to set up autopay again before the payment pause ends in October.

Here’s how to pay off student loans in a way that works for your budget and goals. Look into specialized loan forgiveness programsWhile the Supreme Court hasn’t shared its ruling on Biden’s widespread forgiveness initiative yet, there are other options for loan discharge, such as Public Service Loan Forgiveness and Teacher Loan Forgiveness. You can pay off federal student loans early, as there’s no student loan prepayment penalty. If you want to retain access to federal protections, it wouldn’t make sense to refinance your federal student loans. In the end, there’s no single right way to pay off student loans faster.

☆ When Will Student Loan Payments Resume?
  + stars: | 2023-03-06 | by ( ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +7 min
When will student loan payments resume? While student loan payments have been put on ice since March of 2020, you may have to start paying them back again this summer or fall. Student loan payments are set to resume 60 days after June 30, 2023, or 60 days after the Court’s decision, whichever comes first. We will notify borrowers before payments restart.”That means your federal student loan payments will be due at the end of August 2023 or sooner. Don’t expect your student loan payments to automatically debit from your account, though.
☆ How to Apply for Student Loan Forgiveness
  + stars: | 2022-10-22 | by ( ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +15 min
The official student loan forgiveness application is available on the Federal Student Aid website. What you can do now to prepare for student loan repayment and reliefFirst and foremost, you can fill out the application for up to $20,000 in student loan forgiveness on the Federal Student Aid website. “January will almost certainly be a chaotic time for the [student loan] servicers,” says Michael Lux, attorney and founder of The Student Loan Sherpa. You might also check out alternative options for student loan forgiveness, such as Public Service Loan Forgiveness and Teacher Loan Forgiveness. If your state charges a tax rate of 5%, for example, expect to pay about $500 in taxes on $10,000 in loan forgiveness or $1,000 on $20,000 in loan forgiveness.
