If you are at your maximum limit for student loans, you can pay some of it back in order to regain eligibility. I know that probably doesn't help you much - but also consider some private loan types (although be sure to read all the documents first - some are not good deals). Finally, there may be some scholarships or grants out there you may be eligible for - talk to your financial aid office.

Your student loans are in default your attorney says if you file bankruptcy you will still receive your federal income taxes is this true?

While in general you should always follow your attorney's advice, you may wish a second opinion from another attorney this time. A bankruptcy does not get you out of student loans. If you were going to lose your income tax refund to the student loan people, then even after bankruptcy you still will.


Can you still get a student loan half way through the semester?

Can you still get federal student loans if you have defaulted on other student loans that are now deferred?

What are your rights in dealing with collection agencies for a defaulted student loan?

Your rights are extremely limited. If you have a specific question, please repost. The previous person who said that cannot collect after 3 years was completely incorrect; federal student loans have no statute of limitations whatsoever, and ED is still collecting on loans from the 1960s. Collectors of defaulted federal student loans will not negotiate, collectors of private student loans will negotiate.


Can you receive student loans after filing bankruptcy?

One can usually get student loans after bankruptcy so long as they meet the other eligibility requirements for those loans. Public policy mandates that a "well-educated" society is a "better" society, so for that reason student loans are protected from bankruptcy so lenders will freely give student loans without fear of being filed on. And, since student loans are excepted from discharge in bankruptcy, they're not generally too skittish about someone who has filed before. I have had several clients ask me that same question, and I tell them what I said above and I ask them to let me know if they ever do have a problem getting a student loan due to bankruptcy. So far, no one has ever called me saying the bankruptcy caused them any problems in getting student loans... for what it's worth. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person. that is not necessarily true. i filed bankruptcy and have had a steady job and even paid off a car loan that was applied for after the bankruptcy and I still cant get student loans. When you file for bankruptcy, you're still eligible for government loans, but not for private loans. These are the two basic types of loans. You should be able to qualify for government loans because these loans are based on need rather than credit
