If you have Parent PLUS Loans, there’s a limited-time opportunity to restructure your repayment and qualify for Income-Driven Repayment (IDR), offering much lower monthly payments (sometimes as low as $0) and loan forgiveness after 20-25 years of qualifying payments.
However, the consolidation process takes several months to complete, and the June 30, 2026 deadline is approaching much faster than it seems.
If you miss this opportunity, Parent PLUS Loans will be stuck in a Standard Repayment Plan, which requires fixed payments over 10 years with no forgiveness option. Standard repayment often results in unaffordable monthly payments, especially for large loan balances, which can place a heavy financial burden on your family.
Once the June 30, 2026 deadline passes, you will no longer be able to access IDR benefits through consolidation, locking you into a rigid and costly repayment path.
Previously, Parent PLUS Loans were completely excluded from most income-driven repayment plans.
Now: A single or double consolidation allows access to the Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR) plan and opens the door to the Income-Based Repayment (IBR) plan, which typically offers lower payments and prevents interest from capitalizing when recertified on time.
This may be your last and only chance to get on a forgiveness path — but you must act before June 30, 2026, and the process takes 4–6 months due to its complexity, servicer backlogs and possible errors.
If you wait too long, you risk getting locked into a standard repayment plan with no forgiveness and potentially unaffordable payments. By acting now, you could:
- Qualify for income-driven repayment
- Minimize your monthly payments (as low as $0 in many cases)
- Prevent interest from compounding through smart strategy
- Work toward forgiveness after 20–25 years
- Avoid the standard repayment trap in 2026

If you have Parent PLUS Loans, you’re likely familiar with the pain points of this loan type. Parent PLUS Loans (PPL) are notoriously more expensive, with higher interest rates and all of these loans accruing interest while your child/dependent is in school. This capitalizes and becomes part of the principal balance when you are required to start payments after they graduate leaving a much larger balance than what was borrowed.
This often leaves parents with a daunting repayment burden that grows over time. But there's a game-changing opportunity you need to know about.

"The fact that borrowers don’t have access to reliable and accurate information about their student debt is at the heart of the student loan crisis. Federal student loan benefits, public service student loan forgiveness, income-driven repayment plans and how to navigate them and student loan forgiveness have been a complicated mess for student loan borrowers to navigate since their inception."
December 18, 2023
Zack Geist said that federal student loans are almost always mismanaged and there is a crucial need for more access to the proper information and support to manage student loans. “Similar to how taxpayers seek guidance from trained and licensed tax professionals to ensure accurate tax filings and prevent overpayment, you should consult with a professional regarding your student loans,” added Geist.
