I'm in a bit of a situation. I need to be able to defer my federal student loans for about a year because I currently cannot afford them. I need to defer payments so that I can afford to purchase health care for myself (about a year until I receive my teaching certification). I researched the criteria for deferment based on economic hardship, but I don't qualify because my income is too high. Also, I am on the lowest payment plan offered already, so am at a loss. Looks like I have to choose between having health care and not being delinquent. Does anyone know if there is anything I can do to temporarily defer these loan payments?
