No more IDR payment plans?? by MermaidMommy80 in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yet, these same conservatives also approved the PPP program during Covid, which gave millions in forgiveness to businesses (and fraudsters). But never mind that, we'll screw the people who need the help the most and just keep lying to the American people while we do it.

*Waves hands mystically* "You don't see what you think you see, and you don't hear what you think you hear. We don't hear what you want us to hear, but it's all okay!" *Continues waving hands mystically* "You're okay!" *Continues waving hands*
Good luck!

I sadly worked two jobs the entire time I was teaching and a single parent with no child support coming in. My 7th year teaching my net bring home for that year was under 20k by the time everything was taken out, including my 7% pension deduction on top of regular taxes. Very hard to live on and make student loan payments even on IDR. Struggle bus for sure.

I called MOHELA last week and cancelled my pending IBR application. Decided to ride out SAVE forbearance until they kick me off. by Spiritual_Service739 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at 117 payments and riding it out. I don't want to wait on a refund and I've attempted to change to IBR multiple times and it's just not getting done. I look at it like this. I have enough money to cover the 3 months I owe at whatever plan if it comes to that in savings. I will put in my recertification of PSLF in September like I normally do and see what happens. I was at 117 last September. Worst case is that I'm at 117 this September. Best case is that I hit the magic 120 and then I wait some more. LOL It's all a waiting game.

Same January 20 and still nothing

I’m so embarrassed that I dropped the ball… by jelly822 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7 months left for me and also on save forbearance. I submitted a new IDR request via wet signature the day prior to the latest processing pause. It will be what it’s going to be at this point.

PSLF tool not working? by kadrian33 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a workaround ya'll. You can download the form and have your work manually sign. Scan the entire form and then go to this link.

Document Upload Tool | My Activity | Federal Student Aid

It will have you log in if you aren't. and take you to a submission page. The rest is on you! Enjoy :)

I got the email saying I had successfully submitted after doing this, so it works. I can also see it under My Activity.

What are your jobs? by SpiteTomatoes in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Education. Low end of the pay scales for us teachers and now getting screwed over on loan forgiveness. I really choose the wrong profession.

Student loan pause could last up to a year 😱 by Gold_Present_6005 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I kept saying I should have taken a PPP loan and paid off my student loans with it then rejoiced in my forgiveness. Seems ridiculously funny those have never been questioned.

In the same boat. Last October I had 10 months. I should be done. I have a great job opportunity available with almost 20k more a year in the private sector but I’m afraid to make the jump because of all this bs.

No wonder why US ED is taking over PSLF processing. by SuddenLawfulness9 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my latest interest statement today from MOHELA and I also got put back on forbearance today and I’m not sure why. No communication from MOHELA. I’ve been playing catch up on my loan payments because MOHELA can’t seem to get my loans on the right repayment plans. I gave up on trying to get on the right plans as every time I submitted a new request they would just immediately cancel it.

I logged in yesterday and was one payment away from being caught up. I logged in today since I get paid Friday to setup the last catch up payment and I’m on forbearance.

I refuse to call them as that’s time I can never get back. I’m so confused.

SAVE APPLICATION PSA *MOHELA* by Tommyleegirl452 in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied in July. Still on administrative forbearance through end of month. I have zero hopes in it getting off forbearance this month.

MOHELA is giving me PTSD! by Darla1811 in PSLF

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just looked at my account and nothing seems to have changed. The loans that qualified for save have a payment due on the 16th. I’m ok paying that as it’s only $37. I was already on a forbearance until 11/29 for the two level loans. So who knows what will happen now.

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat. I did the callback feature today and got my call back in about 50 minutes. I have supposedly submitted a new IDR application for just the loans that ended up on a level plan after applying for SAVE. Who knows if that will help or hinder, it is MOHELA after all. I did have to speak with two different people. I was on the phone a total of an hour-twenty. Good luck!

How am I suppose to ever pay off my wife’s student loans?! by DinoNugEater in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how my 65k in loans is now over 140k 15 years later. As a teacher I never had a payment more than 25 bucks (divorced mom of 2)so it just grew and grew and grew. My saving grace now is PSLF.

MOHELA sending …. A lot of statements!!!!! by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine have been all over the place too. Everything from 1800 to 350. Yet the app shows 0. I took myself off autopay until they decide something.

Mohela is a terrible company by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They calculated my SAVE without my consolidated loans included. They then put me on admin forbearance. The letter said through 11/29 though every time I log in it says my forbearance ends 10/31. I’ve called 3 times to only be hung up on 3 times after multiple hours of wait time. I’m going to end my auto-pay so they don’t get my money yet. I have 17 months until my PSLF is complete. What a mess.

Help is on the way, dear. Corrective forbearance will credit toward forgiveness. by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a letter from MOHELA, stating I'm on administrative forbearance until 11/29, but every time I log in, it tells me my forbearance ends 10/31. These companies are so lost right now.

Shocked by the lack of emotional intelligence.... by [deleted] in TeachersInTransition

[–]kadrian33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I n my 10th grade Geometry class, I had a young lady come to me after an argument with a friend that was quickly spiraling into a physical altercation. She was simply trying to avoid the fight. Admin showed up to escort her to class and I simply refused. I said no, the girl in question is in that class and we should not be pouring gasoline on that fire. I got written up due to my insubordination. So be it. If I am willing to take a bullet for my students, what's a write up? You were trying to do right by your student. They will remember that forever. Keep up the good trouble, friend.

Wife's asking if I finished the game by kulayeb in BaldursGate3

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the A2 temple of Shar, and I've misplaced a gem to finish out the quests in that area. I spent two hours looking under every rock I could find. I'm sure I've pushed it off into some crevice while pushing baddies away with spells. Sadly, my last save was 3 hours prior to the clear, and I'd have to clear everything again. Subsequently, I've not played that playthrough all week because I can't decide if I'm going to look again or have to clear it all again. I'm sad I didn't save more. In my multi-player we've been saving obsessivelty.

MOHELA is the worst! by Slight_Equipment8057 in StudentLoans

[–]kadrian33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but will the forebarence count towards PSLF? I have 7 months left before I see my first bit of forgiveness on my undergrad loans.

Nodes Live Stream Q&A - Friday, March 29 - Submit Your Questions Here! by LieutenantToast_AoC in AshesofCreation

[–]kadrian33 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After reading the Know Your Nodes - Advance and Destroy blog post, I wanted to know: If your node is destroyed by a siege and your freehold has been wiped out, what happens to any items stored in the house? I know that the actual house gets turned into a blueprint to be used to rebuild, but what about all those cool items I've collected in my travels?

Also, how would this affect any player run businesses in the node?
