The Republicans of the Congress pursue one of the most important changes to the federal loan program in history. This overhaul, which would affect millions of borrowers, is included in the reconciliation package of the Republicans. If the package is adopted, the package would also extend the tax cuts that were introduced during the administration of Trump in 2017. An essential aspect of the proposed revision is the intention of eliminating most existing repayment plans for student loans and future borrowering to provide a single repayment option.

• 💰 The new plan would require new borrowers to agree to a repayment time of 10 to 25 years, based on their debt size. The total amount owed, including interest, would be divided into the same monthly payments.
• 💰 Borrowers who currently keep loans do not qualify for the new plan, but can access older options, including standard repayment plans with a lasting between 10 and 30 years.
• 💰 The Republicans create their repayment aid plan for future and current borrowers, which enable payments on the basis of their entire gross income.
• 💰 The support plan would also do without all interest after a borrower made their payment, which means that borrowers would no longer see how their loans grow.

Further information on repayment options can be found here on income clips.
