What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Donald Knierim retired after believing his payments qualified for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) through Federal Student Aid. Months later, he received notice that 15 payments previously counted toward forgiveness were changed to "non-qualifying". This change means he must make additional payments, estimated at about $470 monthly, to achieve PSLF.
