for loan forgiveness and repayment programs, suggesting that servicers may not have adequate staffing to address a surge in paperwork and inquiries that will inevitably arrive as payments resume in January.A recent survey by Savi and the Student Debt Crisis Center suggests that many student loan borrowers are not ready to resume payments in January. According to the survey,
nearly 50% of borrowers say they would be unable to afford their student loan payments six months from now, and nearly 9 in 10 say they are concerned or very concerned that inflation will make it harder to afford student loan payments when they resume. Seventy-seven percent of respondents support extending the student loan payment pause beyond December 31.
“Student loan payments impact whether families can afford basic necessities from food to rent,” said Tobin Van Ostern, co-founder of Savi, in a statement. “We see this concern in the thousands of questions we receive from borrowers on a daily basis who are concerned about their ability to begin repaying student loans and how that process will work.
While another extension would certainly invite criticism of the Biden administration from Republican lawmakers, there is clear precedent for extending the relief in the face of new developments that adversely impact borrowers, such as new Covid-19 variants and associated economic challenges, including surging inflation.extended the Covid-19 public health emergency
by not providing a required 60-day notice to states and health care providers prior to ending the emergency. The emergency has been the legal basis of the payment pause under HEROES Act of 2003, which allows the federal government to modify federal student loan programs in response to national emergencies and to ensure that student loan borrowers are not left in a worse position than before the emergency began.
