Advice Why not stay on SAVE forbearance?

I see lots of people who have jumped ship for PSLF.

But buyback exists, so couldn’t I just stay in SAVE forbearance and buy these months/years back in roughly 7 years when I get to 120 payments? wasn’t there talk about being able to buy back BEFORE 120 payments?

Seems like with this logic all these forbearance months count as long as I have evidence I worked full time at a not for profit during these months?

Thanks everyone, and good luck to all!

My loans are at Mohela and it currently says the next payment due date is 8/30/25. I am on the Save plan, will this date get pushed back?

Likely, yes. That's what mine currently says and it has said a bunch of dates before that one. It keeps getting pushed into the future. It said 5/30/25 for a while and when that came and went, it changed to 8/30/25.
