Student Loan Rehabilitation

One option for getting your loan out of default is loan rehabilitation. You must agree in writing to make nine voluntary, reasonable, and affordable monthly payments within 20 days of the due date, and make all nine payments during a period of 10 consecutive months. Under a loan rehabilitation agreement, your payment amount that is equal to 15 percent of your annual discretionary income, divided by 12. When your loan is rehabilitated, the default status will be removed from your loan, and collection of payments through wage garnishment or Treasury offset will stop. You’ll regain eligibility for benefits that were available on the loan before you defaulted, such as deferment, forbearance, a choice of repayment plans, and loan forgiveness, and you’ll be eligible to receive federal student aid. Also, the record of default on the rehabilitated loan will be removed from your credit history.
