Administrative forbearance?
I just looked at my payment counts and found that August 2024 to May 2025 are marked as ineligible for PSLF, despite making payments and having confirmed, eligible employment. Is this a known thing? An administrative forbearance due to them upending SAVE? Or is this part of the "we're still figuring out your payment count" message? Do I have any recourse either way?
I was lucky with recertification timing, so have had low payments (like $20) since graduation 7 years ago. Now that everything has kicked in and SAVE is gone, my payments are at $500. Is buyback sticking around? Will it let me make up those 9 months in a couple years? If so, would it be at my awesome $20 or at the dumb $500?
