      My own loans have been earmarked as a part of the accounts that would be forgiven for the last year, yet I got my notification by email payments resume in September.

      The forgiveness plans have been blocked in some courts, and it seems they just dont want to fight harder to finish the job. And even if it sounds cynical, it’ll be convenient as a tool to dangle forgiveness as a goal of the coming american midterm election year. Which will probably cost them. They might lose seats, then look at student loan forgiveness like a non-starter, “ah-shucks, what are you gonna do kid” then never have to bring them up as a political platform.
