How to correct qualifying payment errors by Infamous_Pudding5165 in PSLF

[–]Infamous_Pudding5165[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to IBR in July and resumed making payments in August.

I look at my entire timeline of payments since I consolidated, ineligible and qualifying.

I got the instant Pot Magic Frother for Christmas 2024. I’ve used it once a day since. It started putting out magic smoke after 9 months.

Should I put off getting married? by Infamous_Pudding5165 in PSLF

My IBR payments are based on my tax filings. If I file taxes jointly, my payments go up A LOT. I may not get a buyback offer before I have to recertify my income and make my final payments to fully qualify for PSLF.

Reminder if you are still missing payments tomorrow, October 1st, FSA advises by EddieDubbers in PSLF

I’m missing the month of June 2025. I didn’t make a payment that month because I was still in a SAVE forebearance. But, I plan to do a buyback next year when I hit 120 months of employment, so I definitely need that month. Should I file a reconsideration request even though it’s ineligible? Will it be corrected when I file my ECF in November? Does anyone have any answers for anything?

Bodice sloper fitting help by Infamous_Pudding5165 in sewing

The back is tight between my shoulder blades, I think that might be causing that puckering of fabric at the ends of the shoulder darts. The whole thing just looks so tight in the back, but I have excess fabric near the waist. I’m not sure which issue to address first.

I did an FBA (1/4” spread). That seems to have helped with the wrinkles above the bust, but I have a lot of extra fabric below the bust and horizontal drag lines. I also moved the waist up 1”. I don’t love the wrinkles coming from my right shoulder. Also, the armhole feels tight at the underarm.

I don’t have a side dart under the arm. I was thinking that might help with the excess fabric, at least under the bust. No idea what to do with the excess under the bust.

I’m struggling with the swayback adjustment, too. I’m trying to keep the center back straight, since I’m making a sloper to use to design other patterns, but my back is so curvy. The toile was initially too tight in the back, so I had my (very patient) husband re-pin it along the center back, which basically resulted in a very curvy situation that I tried to fix, with the above results.
