As a King County employee, you might be eligible for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program (PSLF). The U.S. Department of Education is allowing a one-time exception to give borrowers credit for payments that may not have qualified in the past for forgiveness.

Please forward your completed application form to your department payroll representatives for verification. The deadline for submission is Monday, Oct. 31, 2022.

Please note, PSLF is different from the one-time student loan debt relief of up to $20,000. PSLF is a program for people who work in public service in federal, state, tribal, or local government, or for a non-profit organization. Go to Public Service Loan Forgiveness | Federal Student Aid for more information.
