student loan cancellation
Hi
I took out my first loan in 1995 then a further 3 until I graduated in summer 1999.
up until now I have deferred every year because i have never earned more than the threshhold.
Am I right in thinking that when I reach 50 (I was aged 30 when I took out the first loan in 1995) the loan will be cancelled and i will not have to pay anything back, as long as I continue to defer bewteen now and then of course.
thanks, scoomber
