Do we need to do anything to receive the credit? Is it income based, and if so, is it retroactive? I’ve been a broke ass for most of my life, but I’m finally after an entire career’s worth of busting my ass making pretty good money. I’d be pretty bummed out if I didn’t receive assistance just because it took a long time to push this through.
The press release makes it sound like you don’t need to take any action if you’re still enrolled in the SAVE plan. With other debt cancellations, they sent people letters saying that their debt is now discharged.
Edit 2: it’s income driven based on your current income. Well that sucks for people like me who scratched and clawed their way up the ladder for two decades.
Is the save plan the original registration? I wasn’t able to register for that. They shut registration down by the time I heard of it.

Just be happy that others don’t have to deal with the same issues you did.
Yeah, I’m glad some people will receive assistance.
