CFPB alerts vets to check their mailboxes

The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection has posted an article alerting disabled vets to check their mailboxes for information regarding their eligibility to have their federal student loans discharged tax-free. The Department of Education began matching their list of student loan borrowers with the VA’s list of veterans who are unemployable due to service-connected disabilities. The Department of Education then created a list of federal student loan borrowers or recipients of Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grants who may qualify for Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) discharge.
