PSLF Payment Completion Fairness Act

April 27, 2023

Summary

The PSLF Payment Completion Fairness Act simplifies the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program by removing employment and payment-count requirements that previously caused many borrowers to be denied forgiveness. The bill amends the Higher Education Act to make eligibility easier for public service workers. While not a mortgage regulation, this change could improve borrowers' debt-to-income ratios by accelerating student loan forgiveness, potentially affecting mortgage qualification.
