    Millions closer to student debt forgiveness under new Biden administration changes.
    USA Today (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 78% • 3 min read

    [Department of Education officials] say the 40,000 borrowers under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program will see “immediate debt cancellation,” as part of the changes. PSLF cancels federal student loans for some public sector workers after 10 years of payments.
    ...
    The Department said it will take steps to end “forbearance steering,” in which a borrower is guided by loan servicers to choose forbearance instead of other repayment plans. Officials will give borrowers credit for time spent in long forbearances. The Department estimates that at least 3.6 million borrowers will receive at least three years of credit toward canceling student debt.
    ...
    Several thousand additional borrowers will also see debt forgiveness through income-driven repayment programs. Income-driven repayment plans qualify for forgiveness after a borrower makes 20-25 years of payments.
