The government\u2019s financial aid website is crashing after President Joe Biden\u2019s announcement of a federal student loan forgiveness program<\/a> that cancels up to $20,000 of student loan debt for some people. According to several<\/a> user<\/a> reports<\/a> on Twitter, Downdetector.com<\/a>, and testing done by Verge<\/em> staffers, people are having issues logging into StudentAid.gov<\/a> or even getting the site to load at all.<\/p>\n

The plan announced on Wednesday doesn\u2019t provide blanket loan cancellation \u2014 those with a personal income over $125,000 (or double that if they\u2019re married and file taxes jointly) aren\u2019t eligible for forgiveness, and people who received Pell Grants will have more debt canceled than those who didn\u2019t. The complexity has wound up leaving a lot of people confused and looking for a way to check their eligibility, which has apparently not meant great things for the government\u2019s student loan sites.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, another announcement from the White House<\/a> makes student loans less of an immediately pressing problem; the pause on payments has been extended through December 31st, 2022, though the government says this is the last extension.<\/p>\n

The government isn\u2019t the only one dealing with a surge of traffic after the news \u2014 some users are also reporting having issues accessing loan provider sites from the likes of Nelnet<\/a> and Great Lakes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for details about whether you qualify and are struggling with websites being down, the Department of Education has an explainer about the program<\/a> and is promising \u201cmore details\u201d in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

When contacted for comment, Department of Education spokesperson Jim Bradshaw told The Verge<\/em> that the site was working properly for him but the department was investigating the reports. Reports of the site not working are continuing to roll in on social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
