If the IDR applicant completed an Income-Driven Repayment Plan Request that was not part of a Direct Consolidation Loan Application, he or she will click on "Income-Driven Repayment Plan Requests" under "My Loan Documents" to locate and provide you with the Reference Number you need.
One more question, what if I'm completing entrance counseling to borrow a loan as an undergraduate student?
Then the entrance counseling will fulfill counseling requirements for Direct Subsidized Loans and Direct Unsubsidized Loans.
Makes sense. And how long is this supposed to take?
