What’s funny is that Biden is still forgiving student debt anyway — using statutory authority left intact by the Supreme Court’s obstruction of his original approach. After 25 years of mostly working at nonprofits, I just had my remaining balance canceled without even having to ask for relief.
Not a "gotta hand it to Biden" guy but if it was up to Biden he would have forgiven the debt. It was up to the conservative SCOTUS, which agreed with Republican AGs that he couldn't do it.

like you didn't even have to submit the paperwork for PSLF?

No, not at all. I’d opened the tool once, but never even bothered to start filling it out.

i have a friend in a similar situation to what you describe who i'm not sure will qualify under the exact letter of PSLF but def has over 10 years of nonprofit experience. did you do *anything* or it just magically vanished?

I woke up in the middle of the night Pacific time with a bunch of emails blowing up the two client apps on my phone, and I opened one to find a message about one of my Stafford loans. Thinking that autopay might have failed, I logged in to check, and … (*poof*) they had all gone.

that is amazing! so glad for you. I'll let my friend know ~things are mysteriously happening~ but she should probably still try to apply for PSLF just in case
