AFT Lawsuit against Department of Education
The Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program was started in 2007 under the Bush Administration.
After 10 years, people who thought they were going to get the Public Service Loan Forgiveness were being denied; AFT filed a suit against the Department of Education. As a result of the lawsuit, the Department of Education has to:
1. Close loopholes that lenders were using to deny
2. Get "qualified" payments retroactively credited to your account
