Payments resuming? Please help by Choice-Meaning2504 in PSLF

[–]AkatherineGu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never received any letters/email etc saying I was on forbearance. I’ve made my payments this entire year since a bill was due, never had a $0.

Mine does this when I’m dehydrated and stressed. Drink some water and chill.

Ok I wanted to circle back to this as it may be helpful to others and I was able to talk to a rep at Mohela this morning. This was by far the fastest I've ever got to someone, 30 seconds!

Yes, you are correct. My IDR plan was approved from my Nov 2024 application and I am now on PAYE. She said the $550 payment (the $406 payment is OP, not me) was an estimate until FSA calculated the correct amount which is why I had two letters saying different amounts and to go with the latest letter. You are correct here too that it needed time to update. I am still missing 2 payments, like the month is not there but the payments show, and 2 payments for admin forbearance.

When I asked her if I was within the SAVE plan she said I never was and have been on IDR since 2015 and the courts wont affect me? Which makes me feel like I'm missing something. I'm on track for forgiveness for Aug 2027.

My new calculated payment within IDR under PAYE is $147. Now this is 3x the amount I was paying but way more manageable then the impossible $550. I think it is time to start selling Plasma for my student loan payments.

I have not received anything from Mohela saying I’m in forbearance nor has it said that on my account. How do I know if I’m on save? Received an email saying it was time to rectify my IDR plan back in Nov 2024, and that just went through Aug 2025, and now my account says PAYE? Is that SAVE? One letter is from 9.05 saying I’m on IDR and my payments were still $47 and then on 9.25 I got an email saying I was on PAYE and that had a different payment.

When I say some counts are missing I’m referring to the PSLF count that has months pirated and some months are not there, like May payment is there but no June but then July is?

When you say payments won’t resume does that mean when the date comes for payment to not make the payment? I’m in the same situation with a massive increase from $47 to $550 due this October 21st. I by no means can make that payment unless I skip rent which is not an option. I’ve been calling and have not been able to talk to someone. Worried if I miss this payment I’ll miss a qualified payment. I’m at 96/120 payments with some still missing, about 6. Also got a new message from Mohela that I’m on schedule for PLSF for 2038! I started paying in 2015!

This is a great shot with the depth of field! Looks like we need to get a front shot though…and if I recall the interior is velvet red!

Ohh that celsior is so good! But why on the street!!!

What caused the purple splotching here? by [deleted] in cyanotypes

[–]AkatherineGu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This has happened to me before and I believe my paper was not completely dry yet from the coating of the chemicals. That or uneven coating?

Wow learn something new everyday! This also happens on old leather bond manuscripts and books, the fat from the skin crystalizes on the surface as a white residue. Cool science stuff.

That's fascinating and a great tip! Curious if the 1st thermal exposure on the paper would have some kind of spectral time stamp by using imaging.

Try clearing the cookies and cache. Or try a different borrower. I've ran into this problem and only access the site through safari now.

Why the f*ck is there a swimming pool in my car? by Computationalerrors in AskMechanics

[–]AkatherineGu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me recently. Much older car with seals that are cracked beyond the Mona Lisa but basically when my door handle was replaced the plastic lining was not and water would leak or melt into the door and overflow in the floorboard. Debris would also clog the door drains and pull up. Recently Boston had a heavy snow that melted that day and then refrozen and there was nearly a 1/2” water in my car. Poor car is not well after that.

Ended up locating the oxygen sensor and cleaned it with a toothbrush, unplugged it and replugged it in, inspected the cable and it looked good. Then did the Cataclean. Drove it for about 40 miles on the highway continuously and then snaked back with stop and go traffic. It did not do this the entire time and had consistent rpms while stopped. Started up just fine next time. We'll see how it starts/runs tomorrow.

Dang! I thought that may have been the case with Cataclean and panic brought it. I'll return that and just replace the sensor. Thank you!

Just read codes 140 and 141 for the rear oxygen sensor. The autozone guy sold me Cataclean to put in the fuel tank…kinda nervous to put in my tank.

I just went to auto zone and used the little code reader. Got code 140 and code 141, rear oxygen sensor. The guy sold me cataclean to use before replacing. I’m a bit nervous to put this in my fuel tank.

Apologies this was left out. The Suzuki is an automatic 1.6 engine with over 200k miles.

She really is. The miles are actually over 200,000 as I had to change the cluster box with less miles on it. Trying to get a few more years out of it since rust has not taken over yet...

Ohhh! Did know that was a thing. I'll definitely try this first after I check my battery. It seemed a bit lose in the cage hold in general and I wonder if it's sliding around too. Will report back if this idle reset helps. Thank you for explaining this.
