We take a look at the top benefits that will be
evident in the Obama Debt Forgiveness Program.
The loan forgiveness program stands to offer
exciting features and advantages that will no

by the Federal Government is now tagged as the

Student Loan Forgive
We take a snap shot at some of the benefits
achieved by the borrowers covered as part of the
Federal Student Loan Forgiveness Scheme. These
are related to the tax exemptions, public service
benefits, long-term affordability and building
relation with NGOs and federal service agencies.
3
Tax Relaxations as per Section 108(f)
The borrowers who are covered under the
Forgiveness scheme are exempted from the Tax
payments as per the Section 108(f). The Internal
Revenue Code shields the borrowers from being
taxed if they are associated with particular
occupations. The borrowers who have not worked
with any public service agency will continue to
be taxed by the federal government.

Work in a public service job to avail
income-based repayment
Borrowers who are not working for public service
agencies can still avail the income-based
repayment scheme and apply for forgiveness after
25 years of consistent monthly repayment. Only if
you are working in a public service job, the debt
can be written-off in 10 years and not dragged
for 25 years.

Relaxed eligibility to avail Loan Forgiveness
The conditions to be covered under Forgiveness
scheme consist of documenting and applying for
the loan debt forgiveness every year if you are
working with a public service agency. To take
advantage of this public service loan forgiveness
program, the borrower has to shift his federal
loan payment into the more comprehensive Direct
Loan Program.

Public service jobs get a boost
As per the Federal Student Loan Forgiveness
program, the definition of Public service jobs
covers the following occupation Teachers
teaching in elementary, middle and high-schools
First responders involved with policy, fire,
EMT Public librarians, Social workers,
Public defenders and prosecutors Medical
officers People associated with tax-exempted
NGOs Military Personnel

Repayments need not be consecutive
The biggest benefit of being covered under
Student loan Forgiveness program is that the
borrowers need not make a regular payment in
consecutive term. In case, if the borrower was
laid-off and then got back his job, the scheme
would not disqualify the person for non-payment
of sum. The scheme continues to match the
120-month repayment deadline.
