Student loans do not go through the discharge procedure, only bankruptcy's. A discharge takes place six months from the date you filed for bankruptcy. Then you have to wait two years from the date of discharge to apply for a home loan.
Student loans are exempt from discharge because too many others had the same idea.
It's my understanding that student loans are not discharged by bankruptcy any longer. YOu should check this, though
The only way to get out from under a student loan is to pay it off. You can go to the Department of Education web site for more information
Federal student loans have no statute of limitation, meaning they can collect forever. The can garnish your wages without taking you to court, take your tax refund, and sue you in court for property and bank accounts. Student loans are also almost impossible to discharge in bankruptcy. There are people now who did not repay their student loans from the 1970s who are having their social security garnished. Not paying is a very bad idea.
Filing for bankruptcy typically does not discharge student loans, as they are generally considered non-dischargeable debts under federal law. While bankruptcy may provide relief from other debts, a borrower may still be responsible for repaying their student loans. In some cases, borrowers can seek a hardship discharge, but this is challenging to obtain. Overall, bankruptcy can have long-lasting effects on credit and financial stability, making it a less favorable option for dealing with student loans.

Student loans are considered unsecured because they are not backed by collateral, such as property or assets, which lenders can seize if the borrower defaults. Instead, these loans are based on the borrower's creditworthiness and promise to repay. This lack of security means that lenders face a higher risk, which can result in higher interest rates compared to secured loans. Additionally, in the case of bankruptcy, student loans are often difficult to discharge, further complicating the borrower's financial situation.
Actually, that's not true - student loans are forgiven when the student dies.
Unfortunately no. All student loans, whether private or Federal are not elligible for discharge in bankruptcy.
Yes, there is a very SMALL possibility that student loans can be discharged in a bankruptcy proceeding and you are correct to say that the reason would be with a very compelling showing of hardship. That being said, this is very uncommon and student loans are typcially classified in a category of nondischargeable debt. A law was passed in 1998 that has made it even more difficult to discharge a student loan in bankruptcy. It is incredibly difficult to discharge a loan in this way, and the only approach is to convince a court that repaying the loan would create a severe hardship for you.
