In light of the continuing lawsuits aiming to block his student loan forgiveness plan, the Biden administration today announced yet another extension to the nearly three year pause on student loan payments, interest, and IDR recertifications. According to ED, “Payments will resume 60 days after the Department is permitted to implement the program or the litigation is resolved, which will give the Supreme Court an opportunity to resolve the case during its current Term. If the program has not been implemented and the litigation has not been resolved by June 30, 2023 – payments will resume 60 days after that.” In other words, payments should resume no later than September 1st.
