The Education Department has quietly revised its guidance about which loans are eligible for President Joe Biden’s student debt relief program.
After Biden revealed his plan, guidance on the Education Department website said officials were assessing whether the relief would extend to borrowers with privately owned federal student loans, including Federal Family Education Loans and Perkins Loans, and that “in the meantime, borrowers with privately held federal student loans can receive this relief by consolidating these loans into the Direct Loan program.” No immediate deadline for consolidating was specified.
On Thursday, however, the website said that only borrowers who had applied for consolidation of family education loans or Perkins loans into the direct loan program “prior to Sept. 29, 2022,” would be eligible for debt relief. There still is no date for when a government website will be live for all eligible borrowers to file claims.
