Thank you all.
I thought it was a scam. Being an honest soul here…this question is for the parent of a recent college grad who is a friend. I know we aren’t supposed to post for friends…and really, I was posting for my own knowledge!
But let’s just say…I told her that she shouldn’t be paying a fee for anything like this…and she should deal directly with her loan servicer.
I think a thread about loan forgiveness and income contingent repayment…and when taxes owed on what is forgiven in the end applies…or not…would be a helpful one.
