There were deferrals for some kinds of debts for persons displaced or whose banks were affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. If you were a resident of Louisiana or Mississippi in the affeected areas, check your state's web site.

Contact the company directly and give them supporting documents to prove it is only one and it is too old. Ex: cancelled checks to show payment. And in the future after repaying an old or even a current debt, always ask them to send you a letter showing a zero balance. That way when there is confusion in the future you have proof it was paid and the date.

A suggestion: since you don't say what county (or state) you're in, why not try calling the sheriff's office you owe the money to and ask them?

sounds like you need to complain to the school board...after all you did pay for that...you should get what you pay for.

get a equifax credit report, it will tell you who you owe and how much. make sure to keep your reciept for payment incase they dont strike it from your credit report so you can prove you paid it.

I work in the finance department at a major university.  I always tell my students when they ask this question to contact their lender.  If you are unsure who your lender is, your schools finance or accounting department will be able to give you this information.

This will be touchy.\n\nPlease don't take this wrong. \n\nI don't know if you can do anything about it or not, even with some legal help. The way everyone else is going to see it, is that you broke the law and went to prison. You could not pay the loan bills because you were in prison. You were in prison because of drugs, which is against the law. So, being that you can't pay a bill which you "voluntarily" took on by getting a student loan because "you" broke the law, then the collectors or whoever is not going to be merciful. \n\nPlease don't think I am being a butthole. I am in the military and after a couple of years, I understand how people of authority think. They don't care about how you got into the situation you are in or why. All they see is that you got yourself into it. They also know that you know right from wrong. So regardless of what you saw growing up, or if you come from a broken home, or if you were in the wrong place at the wrong time or whatever could have possibly led to your situation. All they think is, you are responsible for your own actions. \n\nSo in their eyes you are responsible for your debt. Regardless of what has happened from the time you took on the loan until now. \n\nLike I said, please don't take this wrong. I am not lashing out at you or against you. I am just telling you how they are most likely thinking. I am not judging you or condeming(sp?) you. \n\nSo seek legal help ASAP. I wish you luck.

First I would do a goggle search using the name and information you have. It's surprising how much is out there you can find out with just a simple search.\n\nSecond contact the better business bureau and the Chamber of Commerce (through their website) there in Phoenix Arizona and ask if they have had any reports of problems with this company. It's free through both of these sources to find out about a business and they will tell you of any major problems that have been reported. \n\nThird I would ask the financial aid office at the school I was planning to attend if they had any information about the company. If they don't know anything about them ask how to contact the Federal Student Loan Department to find out what they have on them. Sallie Mae keeps records on problems with lenders and will provide that information to you.\n\nSee the resources area below for URLs \n\n(Remember that companies that are questionable change their information often so not finding out anything doesn't mean all is OK. Use all of the resources before you decide and look for positive information not just a lack of complaints.)

If your loans are Direct Loans you can use the previous poster's listed website.  However if you have loans that are from other lenders you might find more information at www.nslds.ed.gov, which is the National Student Loan Database, where you can look up any loans that you do have.  Many of the lenders have websites or emails addresses listed for quick contact, along with mailing addresses and phone numbers.  Once you know your lender you can use their websites to gain even more additional information on your loans.\n\nYou will need your Dept of ED PIN to look up loan status.  If you cannot find your PIN, you can request a duplicate at www.pin.ed.gov.

Only federal and state agencies to which you owe money can certify a debt to Financial Management Services (FMS), the agency within Treasury that handles the Treasury Offset Program (TOP).  The IRS might be able to tell you if there is an FMS TOP indicator on your account, but FMS does not tell the IRS who has certified a debt.\n\nThe surest way to find out if a federal or state agency has certified your debt is to contact FMS at (800) 304-3107.

It is true for certain Gov. Loans.  Your school needs to be a chapter one school , which means the majority of your students fall below the poverty line and receive free lunch.  You enroll by getting the application from your lending institute or college or directly from the Stafford and Perkins loans.  Your loan is frozen and a certain amount of your loan is paid each year you remain in the program for five years.

I would contact the school.  You should have already gotten it long ago...our funds are in our students hands the week before a semester starts.  It may vary from school to school...but you should have it for sure!  GOOD LUCK! :)
