I’m not aware of any pending class action lawsuit about this issue. In many ways we are at the mercy of the federal government on this one.

That said, I think mention of voting is the right one. Ultimately, it is our federal government and if we don’t like what they are doing, we need to vote someone else into office. I’ve been suprised at how little student loans have been mentioned this election cycle, but if we all show up to vote, we will get more attention.

This has been my biggest stressor. My main question revolves around what can we do as collective borrowers to advocate for this solution if retroactive PSLF credits are not given? Is there any legal backing to support the borrowers in a case like this? Other times of administrative forbearance have counted towards these counts, so why are some being counted and others not? I have written the Department of Education, The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and my senators/representatives with no real answer. I will await a ruling, and I will vote, but I would like to know what my chances are of holding the Department of Education responsible for these changes/decisions?
