The guidance now says, "As of Sept. 29, 2022, borrowers with federal student loans not held by ED cannot obtain one-time debt relief by consolidating those loans into Direct Loans."
JUST IN: In a remarkable reversal that will affect the fortunes of millions of student loan borrowers, the U.S. Department of Education quietly changed its rules on who is eligible for President Biden's comprehensive student debt relief program. n.pr/3BRRXgN

Nearly all Pell Grant recipients come from families with incomes of $60,000 or less. Like we promised, our Administration’s student loan debt plan will help up to 27 million Pell Grant recipients – helping those who need it the most.

This week, I spoke with Victoria and Daria, two Pell Grant recipients who are eligible for up to $20,000 in student loans forgiven because of my Administration's plan.
This relief means breathing room for Americans to build a better future for themselves and their families.
