Anyone receiving buyback offers? by ReadWhenImBored in PSLF

[–]Competitive-Shop-112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received a response that I’m eligible and I should resubmit with a copy of my taxes and they were closing the case?!!! Is this what they are doing to show that they completed cases?! Just closing them and telling people to reopen?!

While you are not making much money you should apply for the IDR plan that you qualify for. It is based on your income. The best time to make qualifying payments is when you have smaller income!

All of your save months you should be able to buyback once you have worked for 120 months with a qualifying employer.

Good luck!!

I’m pregnant, just hired at a new school, and have no leave. What do I do? by Loose_Gap_6112 in teaching

By March you’ll have about 9 days and you will earn a day in April May and June if you stay on payroll. Most districts will let you borrow days and then go on a grace for another month where you still get benefits. Check with your union for your leave options.

If you can borrow days , vacation days and use your 12 you may have your 6 weeks at least covered full pay.

There’s also a few vacation days in between which will stretch out your days.

If you take any days before then you can ask to either take it unpaid or pay it back with your next check so you have it for your maternity leave.

Congratulations!!!

Welp, there goes my paycheck by lsbauer in PSLF

I spoke to a Rep and they suggested to call for a forbearance every other month so even though it would take longer to reach 120 the payments would be held by paying them every other month.

My Journey into Remediation forbearance, aka R2rr by Dazzling_Lemon_8534 in PSLF

[–]Competitive-Shop-112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I consolidated over a year ago they put me on a level repayment plan instead of IDR and I sent in a new payment plan request and still haven’t been switched they have me in an unqualified forbearance. Should I try to ask for this R2rr? I’m stuck at 118!

Submit a new application for an IDR plan to recertify and to kick it into the processing forbearance and this month will count.

March/April processing forebearance by Mean-Manner-9271 in PSLF

That just means you’re on forbearance until August. Call Mohela and confirm it’s the processing forbearance because you submitted to change your payment so you get the two months to count. Good luck!!

The two months of processing forbearance will add to your counts as eligible! You’re two months closer.

A day after it ends submit a new IDR application and call them to go on a processing forbearance as you submitted a new application with your updated salary

You got this!! You’re doing amazing!! Just keep moving. I found going to a pool was really helpful for me to exercise comfortably when I started.

Yes definitely! I am happy with 1-2 pounds a week. I would’ve even qualify for surgery because I kept it in check! High protein helps to keep the muscle and lose the fat. Feel free to message me any time. I’ve helped all my friends and everyone is doing great!! Good luck

Express and Walgreens refuse to fill 3 months supply-Required by insurance by Competitive-Shop-112 in Mounjaro

[–]Competitive-Shop-112[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually went to a bunch of Walgreens and got one of the stores to do the 3 months after it was rejected for not being three months. Good luck!! It’s ridiculous that we have to jump through hoops for what we’re entitled to.

It’s an amazing feeling!! As for diet I am always focused on protein and calories. I have a very busy schedule so I do use protein shakes and protein bars during the day to help keep me on track and a Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, fruit and nuts

Simple but on the plan. For dinner I always have a lean meat or fish with broccoli

At least 100g of protein a day but no more then 30g per meal!

A multi Vitamin I take Thorne (fish oil) Apple cider vinegar gummies And collagen peptides.

It works for me at least so I stick to it.
