Among Americans, more than 45 million student loan borrowers still owe at least a portion of what they borrowed. Today's average student-loan debt for a college graduate is slightly more than $40,000 and, collectively, the total for student-loan debts in the US exceeds $1.5 trillion.
This debt total surpasses all types of household debt other than mortgages. Nearly 25% of federal borrowers are in default or struggling to stay current on their student loans. But when they fall behind on their payments, the consequences are dire: negative credit reports, wage garnishment and diminished options to cure defaulted loans.
For Dallas-Fort Worth residents seeking to repair credit scores damaged by student-loan debt, the credit experts from Trinity Credit Services are here to help. We also do more than assist those saddled with sizable student-loan burdens. Trinity Credit Services also can find remedies for customers facing late payments, charge-offs, foreclosures, bankruptcies, tax liens, repossessions, collections, and much more.
Without question, the student-loan debt crisis in America is troubling. Caused by decades of disinvestment in public higher education that has shifted costs onto students and their families while leaving colleges and universities underfunded, the issue is hampering the productivity of the best & brightest young Americans. Worse, there appears to be no relief in sight for those who default on student loans.
Normally, a defaulted debt will fall off a report after 7.5 years from the date of the first missed payment. A defaulted federal student loan, on the other hand, has no Statute of Limitations. While loans older than 7 years may not appear on a credit report, collections can and will continue.
