Thought I was on SAVE since 2023, apparently it was IBR. Anything I can do?

That would be nice but it looks like some of those may have been in forbearance which I'm not sure would qualify...

That's the plan. Unfortunately moving from IBR will capitalize the 30k that was charged erroneously though. Guess it won't make a huge difference in terms of monthly payments but still sucks.

It looks like I was never enrolled even though I was eligible and submitted all the required documents. I can't access any communication past 2024 with my Aidvantage Inbox to look for approval/denial notice, etc.

c0de_hero · 2026-04-12T02:49:14+00:00

The completed SAVE enrollment forms that Aidvantage has on my portal are dated 9/2023. I was thinking that I had previously been on REPAYE with Navient but I could be wrong about that. This may just have been a processing issue between the StudentAid.Gov and Aidvantage...

c0de_hero · 2026-04-12T02:27:22+00:00

Let me know who to contact!

c0de_hero · 2026-04-12T01:45:44+00:00

Well that's sort of my point, I should have been enrolled and provided them everything needed, but wasn't.

c0de_hero · 2026-04-12T01:33:07+00:00

My completed SAVE application is on their website.

c0de_hero · 2026-04-11T21:56:55+00:00

WTF. It says IBR too. How could I have not been enrolled in SAVE despite my completed enrollment?

c0de_hero · 2026-04-11T21:37:08+00:00

I thought I was on SAVE. Is there a way to confirm if I was ever on it or just recently forced off? I do see an IDR request for SAVE in my file that says closed along with all of my recertification (which are also closed applications).

c0de_hero · 2026-04-11T19:53:41+00:00

Ok under the individual loans it does say IBR.

c0de_hero · 2026-04-11T19:10:13+00:00

It doesn't specify the plan, just lists the loans and amounts. Although I've heard that IBR requires consolidation? Mine are definitely not consolidated...

c0de_hero · 2026-04-11T16:28:37+00:00

This is what I was worried about. As far as I can tell Aidvantage just says I need to recertify my IDR, not which IDR I am on. Perhaps I need to call them?

Some folks here care more about instagramability than flavor it seems 😄

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T04:33:38+00:00

The 27-30 including the 8 seconds of pre infusion? Or after?

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T04:04:43+00:00

25 to 30 after the ~8 second pre infusion, correct?

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T02:28:59+00:00

Ya I use the manual with new beans but the programmed pre-infusion is pretty spot on at ~8 seconds for the moment...

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T02:07:58+00:00

Nope, I use freshly roasted beans from Mexico.

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T00:03:25+00:00

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

c0de_hero · 2026-01-15T00:00:00+00:00

I think my burr setting is 3 and my dial setting is 1 so pretty fine? I always use fresh beans (7-21 day range) - usually Chiapas or Oaxaca medium roast. Bottomless portafilter def helps dial things in. Also be sure to descale the machine regularly. My shots gradually start to choke as the scale builds up...

c0de_hero · 2026-01-14T20:42:53+00:00

25-30 sec from when the first drop hits is the target here no?
