Dept of Ed Launches New SAVE Income-Driven Repayment Plan - The McNamara Investment Group
With federal student loan payments set to resume the first of the month, the Department of Education recently announced changes to its income-driven repayment plan.
Considered the "most generous" repayment plan to date, the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan will increase the income threshold for payments up to 225% of the federal poverty level and eliminate the accrual of unpaid monthly interest, as long as borrowers make their monthly payments as required under SAVE.
In July 2024, borrowers will see additional changes, including a cap on their monthly payments of no more than 5% of their discretionary income (10% for graduate loans) and a sliding scale for federal student loan forgiveness moving forward.

FAFSA Simplification Act Changes for Implementation in 2024-25 | Knowledge Center
ICYMI, earlier this year, the Dept of Education announced a delay in the release of the 2024-25 FAFSA. The application is expected to open sometime in December 2023, as opposed to its usual time of October 1.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid has been undergoing a redesign that the DOE has called "the most ambitious and significant redesign...in decades [that] will significantly simplify how students, parents and other educational stakeholders use the FAFSA."
Click the link below to read more about these changes, which include a transition away from Expected Family Contribution calculations and adjustments to how minors savings accounts (like 529s) are treated, among others.
