Travis Hornsby, founder and owner of Student Loan Planner, takes us through the often overwhelming and confusing world of student loan repayment plans. With new government updates happening each month, it’s important to stay on top of the various options available to you. Travis explains, in simplistic terms, those options and how you can take advantage of them to pick the plan that is best suited for your student loan debt.

In this episode we talk about different payment plans based on income levels, what’s going on with student loan cancellation, and what you can expect when student loan payments eventually resume.

If you’ve ever been anxious about not knowing your options, or you’ve wanted to tackle your student loan debt in a more strategic way, this episode is for you.

What to expect when the student loan payment pause ends next year (2022)
How student loan forgiveness is real + where to go to find out if you qualify for it
Various repayment plan options based on various income levels (low to high)
