I am unemployed and receiving unemployment benefits will I be able to get a student loan deferment?
I am sending in the form anyways but what the chances they will decline my deferment as my unemployment isn’t nearly what I was making and I will not be able to make my student loan payments on top of all the other bills I have
You’ll be fine. All you have to do is fill out an economic hardship form and they will defer payments. I suggest you start looking for work and put as much as you can towards your student loans/interest. You still will be in deferment status, just submit what you can on your student loans.
