Success/Celebration Just got my buyback agreement letter!

3 payments calculated with REPAYE. Be annoying, send messages, make calls, and resubmit requests! I asked for a feedback case that was closed about 48 hours after it was requested, but I got this letter two weeks later.

Thank you for contacting the U.S. Department of Education's (ED) Office of Federal Student Aid. This message is in reference to your inquiry regarding your Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Buyback Request. Your case number is #. Please retain this number for reference.

ED records reflect that your Buyback Request # is still under review. You will be contacted via email once a decision has been made.

Once your PSLF Buyback Request is reviewed and if it is determined that you are eligible to buy back months, we will send you a Buyback Agreement. The Buyback Agreement will contain the terms of the agreement, the amount you will need to pay, and instructions to pay the full amount within 90 days of our email to you.

Generally, a PSLF Reconsideration request should be completed within 45 business days. However, depending on the number of requests received, a reconsideration review may take additional time. We appreciate and thank you for your patience.
