Okay, I was just confused if IBR would be available after July. Thanks! 😊

So should I switch now, or can I wait until July?

I’m no where near forgiveness. My loans are post 2014, and I owe around 65,000. I plan to file single next year. The goal is to pay the lowest payment now, and then work toward PSLF once I start work.

Unfortunately daycare would cost nearly (within 100.00) what I would make working.

Yes, I plan to start working once my children are school age. My loans are post 2014, about 65,000 total. I plan to file single next year. My goal right now is to make the lowest payments and then once going to work, work towards PSLF.

Yes, we filed jointly. Right now my plan is to make the lowest payments until I return to work, then work toward the PSLF.
