  19. Social Security payments could shrink as much as 15 % in June, to as low as $750 per month, for some recipients who owe student loans, after the Trump Administration made a rule change.

    An estimated 450K people over age 62 could be affected.

    🔗 You can contact the government's Default Resolution Group and pursue several different avenues to get out of default, including enrolling in an income-driven repayment plan.

    "If Social Security is their only income, their payment under those plans would likely be zero," president of non-profit The Institute of #StudentLoan Advisors said.

  21. Millions of Americans hit with bad credit after missed #studentloan payments

  22. I, like probably most people, have assumed that student loan debt impacts mostly younger people. And I already knew that lots of people are paying off student loan debt for 10 or 15 years, productive time that they should be spending contributing to the economy and building wealth rather than being strangled by debt.

    It is absurd to think that there are people paying off student loan debt in retirement, having their social security garnished. Yet here we are.
