Trump administration quietly shutters online form for student debt repayment

Summary

The Trump administration has quietly removed online applications for income-driven student loan repayment plans, creating confusion for borrowers.

This follows a federal appeals court decision pausing Biden’s Save program, which aimed to forgive student debt after 10 years of payments.

Critics argue the removal was unnecessary and could cause financial hardship for millions. The Department of Education did not announce the change, instead posting a banner on its website.

Advocacy groups call the move “cruel” and accuse Trump of increasing financial strain on working families.
