I’ll take you back to the beginning of the IDR waiver and walk you through it to make sure you get the most benefit before it expires on April 30th. You’ll also hear answers to listener questions about loan forgiveness and repayment plans and get valuable insights into the upcoming changes in consolidation rules.
