Abstract: These forms serve as the means by which eligible borrowers in the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program and the Federal Family Education Loan Program apply for teacher loan forgiveness and request forbearance on their loans while performing qualifying teaching service. Borrowers apply for loan forgiveness after they have completed five years of qualifying teaching service at a low-income elementary school, secondary school, or educational service agency. The Teacher Loan Forgiveness Forbearance Request serves as the means by which a borrower who intends to apply for teacher loan forgiveness requests forbearance (permission to temporarily cease making payments) on the loans for which he or she is seeking forgiveness while performing the teaching service applicable that will qualify the borrower for loan forgiveness.
