Inland Revenue says attitudes are shifting among student loan holders living overseas. More than $200 million has been collected from overseas borrowers since July last year – a big annual increase. More than 24,000 people are thought to be overseas, collectively owing $1.3 billion on loans going back more than 15 years. IRD's Jane Elley told Kerre Woodham since they received additional funding they've been able to ramp up their workforce, enabling them to be a lot more targeted when chasing debt. Her advice to anyone struggling with their loan is to get in contact with the IRD – ignoring the problem only makes it bigger. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over five million US borrowers are in default, with their loan 270 days past due. Four million haven't made payments in 90 days. Now, the five-year pause on collections for defaulted student loans ended Monday.The original pause goes back to a 2020 pandemic-era policy, but it was extended multiple times during the Biden administration. For those in default, the collection of that debt may mean dipping into paychecks, tax refunds, and social security benefits. These collections are being restarted weeks after the Department of Education has seen its staff cut by half. Borrowers are also dealing with glitching and outages on financial aid websites.We answer your questions about student loans and hear why so many borrowers are considered "seriously delinquent."|Want to support 1A?

On Monday, the U.S. Department of Education is expected to resume collections on student loans that are in default, ending a five-year pause that first began at the start of the pandemic. According to the agency, more than 5 million borrowers are in default, which typically happens after nine months of non-payment on a federal student loan. The federal government can force collections on defaulted student loans by garnishing wages, tax refunds or Social Security benefits.  About 500,000 Oregonians have student loans, most of which have balances between $10,000 and $40,000, according to Lane Thompson, the Oregon Student Loan Ombuds. That position was created through the passage of SB 485 in 2021 that also required all companies that service student loans in Oregon to be licensed by the state’s Division of Financial Regulation. Thompson joins us to share more information about her office and offers advice for borrowers in Oregon.
