As of January 15, 2026, the program remains blocked by court orders while the Supreme Court considers its legality. Announced on August 24, 2022, the student loan forgiveness plan aimed to provide relief to borrowers earning less than $125,000 per year individually, or $250,000 for married couples. The program offered up to $10,000 in debt cancellation for borrowers who did not receive a Pell Grant,and up to $20,000 for those who did. According to the Department of Education, over 26 million borrowers applied for the program before applications were paused. Multiple lawsuits were filed challenging the legality of the program, arguing that the Biden administration overstepped its authority. Six states - Arkansas,Iowa,Kansas,Missouri,Nebraska,and South Carolina – filed a lawsuit in the Eastern District of Missouri,alleging the plan would harm their state-administered loan programs. A federal judge in Missouri issued a temporary restraining order halting the program on November 10, 2022. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the injunction on November 16, 2023. The biden administration then appealed to the Supreme Court. Oral arguments were heard on February 29, 2024. As of January 15, 2026, the Supreme Court has not issued a ruling, and the program remains on hold. The pause on student loan payments, which began in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ended in October 2023. Borrowers are now required to resume making payments, with interest accruing. The uncertainty surrounding the forgiveness program adds to the financial strain for many. The Biden administration has introduced other measures to assist student loan borrowers, including the SAVE plan, an income-driven repayment plan designed to lower monthly payments. The Department of Education has also announced targeted loan forgiveness for borrowers defrauded by their schools and those with disabilities.
