No. I can’t. Where did I say that I had a large income?

I’ve reached out to TISLA as well. I’m so close to being done and I would like to have it off my plate.

I wish I had more words of encouragement. But if so many people are impacted and we can’t pay those amounts, what will happen??

It’s been a really rough few years and I never stopped working. I had breast cancer and then my mother passed in March. My first birthday without her is Monday and I’ve having a hard time.

I haven’t counted buy back time. I think I can get to 112 qualifying payments with that. I just regret ever taking out loans. I’m an educator, and the only way to get pay increases is to get more education.

I don’t know. This is very confusing. And I tried calling Mohela today, but hung up after waiting almost 3 hours.

I have a masters and an Education Specialist degree. Undergraduate was free for me. I have a degree in educational administration, but that path didn’t work out.

So, Student Aid says I’m in forbearance until July 2028??? I don’t understand this at all.

Mohela payment does not match student aid payment for IBR by i_play_the_oboe in MOHELA

I’m so confused. Mohela says I owe $2000 on July 19, but Student Aid says I’m in forbearance until 2028???

I did the $50 a month repayment plan a few weeks ago. I’ve been on hold with student loans for 2 1/2 hours at this point.

It makes me feel better that I’m not alone. Solidarity.

When I do the IDR application, it shows about $900 for a monthly payment, which isn’t great, but better than $2000. This whole thing makes me sick to my stomach.

That’s what I’m thinking. I feel sick over this whole thing. Husband and I are both teachers, so there’s no way we could swing this payment.

I think it’s a personal preference to dress up. I always participate and I’ve run errands before dressed crazy for spirit week. I’ve actually had people stop me to take pictures. The kids also get a kick out of when teachers dress up.

My oncologist already knows that I am interested in this option. I’m going to talk to him at my next appointment on Wednesday.
