How much of your Social Security can be garnished for student loan debt?

Millions of Americans with federal student loan debt are once again subject to involuntary collection efforts, and that includes the garnishment of Social Security benefits for those in default. The Department of Education recently resumed these collection actions, raising serious concerns for older borrowers who rely heavily on monthly Social Security payments to cover essential living costs.According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, out of the 5.3 million borrowers facing potential garnishment, approximately 425,000 are 62 or older. That means hundreds of thousands of seniors could see their retirement income shrink significantly to repay old student loans.When can Social Security benefits be garnished?Can Video Games Actually Teach Your Kids About Finances?Social Security payments, including both retirement and disability benefits, generally enjoy legal protections from most types of debt.

6 student loan repayment plans that could be repealed by the Trump administration

In a significant move to reshape the federal student loan landscape, House Republicans have advanced the Student Success and Taxpayer Savings Plan. This legislation seeks to streamline repayment options, reduce federal spending by over $330 billion, and align with President Donald Trump's broader fiscal agenda. However, critics argue that the proposed changes could increase financial burdens for borrowers and limit access to higher education.Why your tax refund may be lower than expected"Today, the Education and Workforce Committee passed the Student Success and Taxpayer Savings Plan-a vital portion of Trump's big, beautiful bill to provide tax relief for American families and small businesses, rein in wasteful spending, and reduce the federal budget deficit," the committee stated on Tuesday.Rep.

Fact check: Are student loan payments going to be higher for married borrowers?

Student loan borrowers who are married may soon face larger monthly payments due to a recent policy reversal tied to ongoing legal battles over federal repayment plans. A shift in how spousal income is factored into income-driven repayment (IDR) calculations is expected to take effect in May 2025, and it could have major financial implications for millions of Americans.This change stems from the suspension of the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan, a centerpiece of the Biden administration's student loan reform efforts. The SAVE plan had allowed married borrowers who filed their taxes separately to have their loan payments based solely on their own income. That method often reduced payment obligations for households where one spouse earned significantly more than the other-or where only one partner held federal student debt.However, a federal court recently blocked key provisions of the […]
