You Can get out of default on a FFELP or Perkins Loan through the government's rehabilitation program under which you and the agency holding your loan come up with a reasonable and affordable payment plan based on your income and expenses. Your entitled to rehabilitate your loans even if you've been sued and there is a court judgement against you. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you default again, the government will not grant you another chance at rehabilitation. In this article you will learn how to get your student loans out of default.

Things You'll Need

• Knowledge of what you owe and what you can afford to pay.

Instructions

1. Make Consecutive 6 Payments

   If you make six consecutive monthly payments, you will be out of default sufficiently enough to be eligible for a new student loan if you want to return to school.

2. Make 12 Consecutive Payments

   Once you make twelve consecutive payments, the agency holding your loan can sell it to a company that handles payments and collections of student loans, and can remove the default notation from your credit record.

3. Eligibility for deferments

   You will now be eligible for deferments. If you don't qualify, you will be given ten years to repay your loans. If you've been paying very small amounts for 12 months, the new monthly payments probably will rise dramatically. If you can't afford them, you will need to request a flexible repayment plan.

Tips & Warnings

• Have your student loan payments debited from your checking/savings account. This will give you a better chance of getting your loans out of default.

• Remember this is the only chance you have to get it right. If you mess this once-in-a-lifetime chance up your default status will never change unless you pay them off in full.
