16 What is Income-Driven Repayment? Repayment plans for your federal loans Income is a factor when determining monthly payment amounts Income-Based Repayment Pay As You Earn Income-Contingent Repayment No required type of employment Taxable discharge after 20 or 25 years
17 Considering Income-Based Repayment Can I choose IBR? How much will I pay? How do I apply?
18 Can I choose IBR? Partial Financial Hardship The 15% Rule Amount you owe annually on a 10-year repayment plan is more than 15% of your discretionary income Discretionary income: Adjusted Gross Income (basically what you file on your taxes) 150% of the federal poverty level for your family size Eligible Loans: FFEL and Federal Direct
19 IBR: How much will I pay? Affordable payments the 15% Rule Limited to paying 15% of discretionary income Your payment calculation does not depend on how much you owe IBR only considers income and family size Forgiveness after 25 years
20 IBR: How much will I pay? Source: United States Department of Education (assume $120,000 eligible debt) Annual Income Family Size (using 2012 poverty guidelines) $10,000 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $15,000 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $20,000 $41 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $25,000 $103 $29 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $30,000 $166 $91 $17 $0 $0 $0 $0 $35,000 $228 $154 $80 $5 $0 $0 $0 $40,000 $291 $216 $142 $68 $0 $0 $0 $45,000 $353 $279 $205 $130 $56 $0 $0 $50,000 $416 $341 $267 $193 $119 $44 $0 $55,000 $478 $404 $330 $255 $181 $107 $33 $60,000 $541 $466 $392 $318 $244 $169 $95 $65,000 $603 $529 $455 $380 $306 $232 $158 $70,000 $666 $591 $517 $443 $369 $294 $220
21 Pay As You Earn Like IBR but better The 10% rule A $353 payment on a $45,000 salary becomes $235 Forgiveness after 20 years Only certain borrowers & certain loans No federal loans before Oct. 1, 2007 and will Borrow a federal loan on or after Oct. 1, 2011 Only Federal Direct Loans What about you? When did you borrow your first federal loan?
22 Income Contingent Repayment (ICR) Also a repayment plan based on your income 25-Year Forgiveness No partial financial hardship required Only Federal Direct Loans Total Direct Loan debt affects payment amount Won t ever pay more than 20% of your income
23 IBR: Information at studentaid.ed.gov
24 How do I apply? Apply as soon as you think you are eligible Check the box and fill out the form to select IBR, ICR or Pay As You Earn when you begin repayment Contact your student loan servicer(s) Don t know your servicer?
25 IBR, ICR & PAYE: studentloans.gov
26 IBR, ICR & PAYE: How do I apply?
27 Yay! But UGH! PAYE 10% Rule 20-Year Forgiveness IBR 15% Rule FFEL and Federal Direct Partial Financial Hardship Certify! Only Federal Direct 25-Year Forgiveness ICR Considers total debt 20% Cap
28 Annual Certification Requirements You must certify your income and family size every year! You have rights! Notice One standard form
29 Choosing an Income-Driven Plan: Additional Considerations
30 Tax considerations What will they count? Filing Jointly or Singly Your Income & Federal Debt Spouse s Income & Federal Debt AGI & Total Debt Your Income & Federal Debt AGI & Total Debt
31 Tax considerations Forgiveness under IBR, ICR & PAYE is Taxable Income
32 Interest Accrual Interest does accrue in income-driven plans Your payment may not be enough to pay all the interest accruing on your loans Payments are applied first to interest Your repayment period may be extended You may pay more total interest
33 Interest Protections IBR PAYE ICR As long as you have a PFH: Your interest will not capitalize The government pays any unpaid interest on subsidized loans the first three years As long as you remain in the plan: Interest capitalization is capped at 10% of the original loan amount
34 I no longer have a PFH You can remain in ICR, IBR or Pay As You Earn Interest capitalizes Recalculated monthly payment amount Payment amount is no longer based on income Capped at what would have been required had you initially entered a 10-year plan Still eligible for 25- or 20-year forgiveness
35 What if I exit an Income-Driven Plan? All Plans: Accrued interest capitalizes No longer eligible for 25- or 20-year forgiveness IBR Only: You are placed in a standard plan Monthly payments are accelerated You may be able to change into an extended plan You are required to make a standard payment before switching negotiate this! IBR & PAYE: Re-entry only upon another partial financial hardship
