FFELP/FDLP Deferment Forms

To request printed forms, brochures, publications, and other materials from TG, visit TG's Online Request system.

A deferment is a temporary postponement of a borrower's student loan repayment. This page contains the various forms used to apply for a deferment on a FFELP or FDLP loan. A borrower is entitled to defer his or her student loan payments if the borrower meets certain eligibility criteria and requests a deferment. For more information on deferments and their eligibility criteria, visit TG Online's Introduction to Deferments.

A borrower must submit a deferment request for a FFELP or FDLP loan directly to his or her lender or servicer. To apply for a deferment, a borrower should download the appropriate deferment form, complete and sign it, and mail the form to his or her lender or servicer. (The forms should not be mailed to TG — that will only delay the process.) Remember that each deferment request must be approved before a borrower's loan payments will be postponed. A borrower should check with his or her lender or servicer for more information. A borrower can obtain information about his or her federal loans through the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) website. Note that a borrower will need his or her federal Personal Identification Number (PIN) to access the site.
