    1. Most of that isn’t relevant. What is your AGI and family size? When did you borrow your first loan?

      My first loan was around 2014 and looks like if i did it correctly its 53,768

      The only things that student loan servicers are going to consider are:

      1. I make less then 50k a year

      2. My loan with interest is around 55k

      Unfortunately, they don’t care about the rest. You’ll qualify for an income-based repayment plan (assuming you’re talking about federal loans, not private). But you will need to apply for the plan and provide documentation to your servicer.

      Go to the student loan repayment calculator. It will give the best answer
