I need to know if I am eligible for federal student loan forgiveness.
I can assist you with this. The type of loan forgiveness that you are referring to is known as borrower defense to repayment.
I defaulted on my federal student loan after entering a rehabilitation plan. Can I still qualify for loan forgiveness?
In your case, you should contact the collection agency that helped you set up the plan. They will be able to tell you whether or not, there would be any negative consequences if you chose to enter stopped collection status.
