How to get a Student Loan with One in Default
Defaulting on a student loan will cause serious problems for you. The government can use a variety of methods to collect payment on the loan. One of the most expensive and embarrassing practices is when they contact your employer about your debt. They will demand that your employer withholds money from your paycheck and pays them. This is called administrative wage garnishment. It is completely legal and it can be devastating for you. Another popular way for the government to recover their money is to keep all of your tax refunds until the loan is paid in full. Oftentimes they will use both methods at the same time. Another problem a defaulted student loan creates for borrowers is that you are unable to qualify to further student loans. If you plan on continuing your education you have a serious roadblock in front of you.
