The Ministry of Education has managed all student loan officers, who treat a portfolio of $ 1.6 billion, to stop accepting and treating reimbursement plans (IDR) income in the next 90 days, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post. Student loan borrowers already registered in one of the four IDR plans and make reimbursements are also prohibited from recerning.
The ministry said that restraint could potentially extend beyond three months or end earlier. Only the most expensive reimbursement plans are available for student loans: reimbursements of 10 years, graduated and extended.
The recent directive of the department was launched by a trial brought in April by the Missouri and six other states led by the Republicans who accused former President Joe Biden of having exceeded his authority in implement an economy on a precious education (Save), an IDR plan which calculates the reimbursement of loans by income and size of the family and offers a faster calendar for forgiveness of loans.
A federal court of appeal examining the trial extended the injunction last month, thus involving all the loan delivery programs. The decision revealed that the underlying law that the Biden administration has used to promulgate a safeguard contradicting the initial intention of the Higher Education Act, which forces loans to pay within 25 years. Consequently, two other reimbursement plans focused on income – paid as you win (pay) and reimbursement of income (CHs) – built under the same statue were called into question.
The court has authorized the remaining plan – the reimbursement plan based on recovery (IBR) – to proceed since it was founded using a different status. However, the Ministry of Education has disabled online requests to all income focused on income on its student help website Last week, and his recent memo also ordered loan officers to suspend all the reimbursement plans.

Also in limbo is access to student loans of student loans The New York Times. Most candidates must also be registered with a reimbursement plan focused on income, which is impossible with the recent service note of the ministry.
“We will work for (federal aid of students) to implement this transition once the courts will clarify things and bring a certain purpose, so that the borrowers can have a certainty and confidence in their options now and in the future,” said Scott Buchanan, Executive Director of the Student Loan Servicing Alliance, a sales agents for loan agents, said The message.
