The application for this forgiveness is now live at studentaid.gov. The application takes five minutes to complete and does not require you to upload any additional documentation at the time of submission. You are encouraged to apply before Nov. 15 if you want to see your balance shrink before the end of the payment pause in January.

Who Qualifies?

• Individuals who made less than $125,000 in 2021 or 2020
• Families that made less than $250,000 in 2021 or 2020

*If you are a dependent student, the income limit will be based on your parent’s Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). To find the AGI, you will need to look at the 1040 tax return, line 11.
