                    Hello all!
Does anyone know whether I would be obliged to repay my Student Loan (taken out 1998) if I was to inherit money?
Is it only repayable via my earnings?
Many thanks!

            Try checking out their website - I'm no expert but i think you can make lump payments if , and I think it's Inland Revenue related (so will go on your taxable income).2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

            Hi,
 Not obliged to but you can make lump sum payments if you wish. Just send everything recorded delivery....
 Good luck
