Kind up upsetting that you dont get the same help from the SAVE plan if you file your taxes jointly. My best friend and her husband file separately and she only pays $5 per month for her loans because it only counts her income. They make WAY more than me and my husband do combined. But i pay $150 per month because me and my husband file our taxes together, not being on the SAVE plan. SAVE plan quoted me $350+ per month. 9 more years until PSFL forgives my loans working at a nonprofit. Ugh!

That might be something to think about —filing separately if you have nine years to go. I wish you luck!

I didn't even realize that was the deal. I am single but when I do get married I didn't realize I wouldn't get the same benefits.

Any tax accountants/attorneys in here? What would happen to the 401k of a foreign worker if they cannot longer maintain an immigration status and have to go back home? What about a ROTH 401k? Assuming they made after-tax contributions, would they still be able to take tax-free distributions if they are non-resident aliens for tax purposes?

And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?
