Authorized Forbearance During Teaching Service

In order to help you maximize the forgiveness amount for which you may qualify, you can request that your loan holder grant you a forbearance (a temporary postponement of payments) in annual increments during each of the years in which you perform your qualifying teaching service. The loan holder must grant this request if the loan holder believes you will qualify for forgiveness of your entire anticipated outstanding loan balance at the time you complete your qualifying teaching service.
