Other Important Information
Income-Based Loan Repayment program or IBR
On July 1, 2009, a major new student loan repayment option will become available
for the
first time. Income-Based Repayment (IBR) caps monthly federal loan payments at
an
affordable level based on your income and family size, and forgives any debt and
interest
that remains after 25 years. If you owe more on your federal student loans than
you earn
in a year, you can probably benefit from IBR. The lower your income, the lower
your
monthly payment will be: in some cases, as low as $0. IBR is available for almost
all
federal loans - past, present, or future - made by any lender, whether for college
or
graduate school.
