Abstract: A Direct Loan Program borrower may use the Repayment Plan Selection form to select an initial repayment plan prior to entering repayment, or to request a change from the borrower's current repayment plan to a different repayment plan. For borrowers who select the Income Contingent Repayment (ICR) Plan or the Income-Based Repayment (IBR) Plan, the Repayment Plan Selection form also serves as the means by which the U.S. Department of Education collects the information needed to calculate the borrower's monthly payment amount and, in the case of the IBR Plan, the information needed to determine the borrower's initial eligibility to repay under this plan.
