Any debt left after that period is then automatically forgiven.The Education Department said the fixes address historical failures in administering the federal student loan program for the income-driven payment plans. Payments that should have brought a borrower closer to paying off their debt hadn't been properly accounted for, the Education Department said.\"For far too long, borrowers fell through the cracks of a broken system that failed to keep accurate track of their progress towards forgiveness,\" said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona.Under the fix, the administration counted partial or late payments and credited borrowers who had paused payments in certain deferments and forbearances.The move came after the Supreme Court on June 30 struck down President Biden's plan to forgive up to $20K of student loans per borrower in response the pandemic.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":17,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":2,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
