If you or a loved one has federal student loans, there's good news and bad news.

You probably already know the bad news.

President Biden's attempt to forgive up to $20,000 in federal debt got struck down by

the Supreme Court in June.

Plus, after a suspension of monthly payments since March 2020 for pandemic relief, they'll

be due again starting in October 2023.

But the good news is that the White House created a new and more generous income driven

student loan repayment program known as SAVE.

It stands for Saving on a Valuable Education.

Some of its benefits begin this summer and others in July 2024.

This show will review seven benefits of the SAVE program, ways to manage student loans

wisely, and how those loans affect your credit.

So whether you're a student or a parent shopping for student loans, getting ready to start

repaying your loans, or are pretty worried that you can't afford to pay them, don't miss

this episode.
