I have a 25K loan from my MBA. I paid off 100k whole, after graduation. 3 years ago, I moved my loan from federal to private ( SOFI) account. I recently lost my job. I have applied for unemployment, as the severance that I received will only cover for 2 months. Together my husband and I used to make less than 250k after tax. Now, with a loss of pay , we are going to make less. Do you think I will be eligible for Loan forgiveness?

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people.

I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.
