PAY AS YOU EARN Under IBR your monthly payment amount will be less than the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-year standard repayment plan and may be less than under other repayment plans Although lower monthly payments may be of great bene t to a borrower these lower payments may result in a longer repayment period and additional accrued interest
INTEREST PAYMENT BENEFIT If your monthly IBR payment amount does not cover the interest that accrues on your loans each month the government will pay your unpaid accrued interest on your Subsidized Stafford Loans (either Direct Loan or FFEL) for up to three consecutive years from the date you began repaying your loans under IBR
25-YEAR CANCELLATION If you repay under the IBR plan for 25 years and meet certain other requirements any remaining balance will be canceled
10-YEAR PUBLIC SERVICE LOAN FORGIVENESS If you work in public service on-time full monthly payments you make under IBR (or certain other repayment plans) while employed full-time in a public service job will count toward the 120 monthly payments that are required to receive loan forgiveness through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program Through this program you may be eligible to have the remaining balance of your Direct Loans forgiven after you have made the 120 qualifying payments as described above The Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program is available only for Direct Loans If you have FFEL loans you may be eligible to consolidate them into the Direct Loan Program to take advantage of the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program However only the on-time full monthly payments made under IBR or cer-tain other repayment plans while you are a Direct Loan borrower will count toward the required 120 monthly payments For more information about this program review the Departmentrsquos Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program fact sheet at wwwstudentaidedgovpubs
YOU MAY PAY MORE INTEREST The faster you repay your loans the less interest you pay Because a reduced monthly payment in IBR generally extends your repayment period you may pay more total interest over the life of the loan than you would under other repayment plans YOU MUST SUBMIT ANNUAL DOCUMENTATION To set your payment amount each year your loan servicer needs updated information about your income and family size If you do not provide the documentation your monthly payment amount will be the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-year standard repayment plan based on the amount you owed when you began repaying under IBR

Federal Student Aid Income-Based Repayment Plan for the Direct Loan and FFEL Programs
What is Income-Based Repayment Income-Based Repayment (IBR) is a repayment plan for the major types of federal student loans that caps your required monthly payment at an amount intended to be affordable based on your income and family size
What federal student loans are eligible to be repaid under an IBR plan All Stafford PLUS and Consolidation Loans made under either the Direct Loan or FFEL Program are eligible for repayment under IBR EXCEPT loans that are currently in default parent PLUS Loans (PLUS Loans that were made to parent borrowers) or Consolidation Loans that repaid parent PLUS Loans The loans can be new or old and for any type of education (under-graduate graduate professional job training)
Who is eligible for IBR You may enter IBR if your federal student loan debt is high relative to your income and family size While your loan ser-vicer will perform the calculation to determine your eligibility you can use the US Department of Educationrsquos IBR calcula-tor at wwwstudentaidedgovibr to estimate whether you would likely qualify for the IBR plan The calculator looks at your income family size and state of residence to calculate your IBR monthly payment amount If that amount is lower than the monthly payment you would be required to pay on your eligible loans under a 10-year standard repayment plan based on the greater of the amount you owed on your loans when they initially entered repayment or the amount you owe at the time you request IBR then you are eligible to repay your loans under IBR
If you are married and you and your spouse le a joint federal tax return and if your spouse also has IBR-eligible loans your spousersquos eligible loan debt is taken into account when determining whether you are eligible for IBR In this case the required monthly payment amount under a 10-year standard repayment plan is determined based on the combined amount of your IBR-eligible loans and your spousersquos IBR-eligible loans using the greater of the amount owed when the loans initially entered repayment or the amount owed at the time you or your spouse request IBR If the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would be required to pay under IBR is lower than the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would pay under a 10-year standard repayment plan you and your spouse are eligible for IBR
What are the bene ts of IBR
Are there any disadvantages to repaying under IBR

How is the IBR amount determined Under IBR the amount you are required to repay each month is based on your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) and family size If you are married and le a joint federal tax return with your spouse your AGI includes both your income and your spousersquos income The annual IBR repayment amount is 15 percent of the difference between your AGI and 150 percent of the Depart-ment of Health and Human Services Poverty Guideline for your family size and state This amount is then divided by 12 to get the monthly IBR repayment amount
The following chart shows the maximum IBR monthly payment amounts for a sample range of incomes and family sizes using the Poverty Guidelines that were in effect as of January 26 2012 for the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia
IBR Monthly Payment Amounts
After the initial determination of your eligibility for IBR your payment may be adjusted each year based on changes in your income and family size but your required monthly payment amount will never be more than what you would be required to pay under a 10-year standard repayment plan based on your outstanding loan balance on the date you began repaying the loans under IBR (unless you choose to exit the IBR program)
Are there examples of borrowers who are eligible for IBR and borrowers who are not Example 1 Based upon the IBR repayment formula a borrower with a family size of one and an AGI of $30000 would have an IBR calculated payment amount of $166 per month If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $25000 when the loans initially entered repayment and the loan balance had increased to $30000 when the borrower requested IBR the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-year standard plan would be based on the higher of the two amounts Us-ing an interest rate of 68 the 10-year standard payment amount for $30000 would be $345 Since the $166 IBR calcu-lated amount is less than the 10-year plan amount of $345 the borrower would be eligible to repay under IBR at a monthly amount of $166 However if this borrowerrsquos total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-year standard amount was only $10000 the 10-year standard payment would be $115 per month which is less than the IBR amount of $166 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible for IBR
Example 2 A borrower with a family size of four and income of $50000 would have an IBR calculated monthly payment amount of $193 If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $20000 when the loans initially entered repayment and this amount had not changed when the borrower requested IBR the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-year standard plan would be based on $20000 Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-year standard payment amount for $20000 would be $230 Since the $193 IBR calculated amount is less than the 10-year plan amount of $230 the borrower would be eligible to repay under IBR at a monthly amount of $193 However if the borrowerrsquos total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-year standard amount was only $15000 the 10-year calculated amount would be $173 per month which is less than the IBR amount of $193 This borrower would not be eligible for IBR

How is the IBR amount determined Under IBR the amount you are required to repay each month is based on your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) and family size If you are married and le a joint federal tax return with your spouse your AGI includes both your income and your spousersquos income The annual IBR repayment amount is 15 percent of the difference between your AGI and 150 percent of the Depart-ment of Health and Human Services Poverty Guideline for your family size and state This amount is then divided by 12 to get the monthly IBR repayment amount
The following chart shows the maximum IBR monthly payment amounts for a sample range of incomes and family sizes using the Poverty Guidelines that were in effect as of January 26 2012 for the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia
IBR Monthly Payment Amounts
After the initial determination of your eligibility for IBR your payment may be adjusted each year based on changes in your income and family size but your required monthly payment amount will never be more than what you would be required to pay under a 10-year standard repayment plan based on your outstanding loan balance on the date you began repaying the loans under IBR (unless you choose to exit the IBR program)
Are there examples of borrowers who are eligible for IBR and borrowers who are not Example 1 Based upon the IBR repayment formula a borrower with a family size of one and an AGI of $30000 would have an IBR calculated payment amount of $166 per month If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $25000 when the loans initially entered repayment and the loan balance had increased to $30000 when the borrower requested IBR the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-year standard plan would be based on the higher of the two amounts Us-ing an interest rate of 68 the 10-year standard payment amount for $30000 would be $345 Since the $166 IBR calcu-lated amount is less than the 10-year plan amount of $345 the borrower would be eligible to repay under IBR at a monthly amount of $166 However if this borrowerrsquos total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-year standard amount was only $10000 the 10-year standard payment would be $115 per month which is less than the IBR amount of $166 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible for IBR
Example 2 A borrower with a family size of four and income of $50000 would have an IBR calculated monthly payment amount of $193 If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $20000 when the loans initially entered repayment and this amount had not changed when the borrower requested IBR the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-year standard plan would be based on $20000 Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-year standard payment amount for $20000 would be $230 Since the $193 IBR calculated amount is less than the 10-year plan amount of $230 the borrower would be eligible to repay under IBR at a monthly amount of $193 However if the borrowerrsquos total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-year standard amount was only $15000 the 10-year calculated amount would be $173 per month which is less than the IBR amount of $193 This borrower would not be eligible for IBR

Federal Student Aid Pay As You Earn Repayment Plan for the Direct Loan Program
StudentAidgov
What is Pay As You Earn Pay As You Earn is a repayment plan for eligible Direct Loans that is designed to limit your required monthly payment to an amount that is affordable based on your income and family size
What federal student loans are eligible to be repaid under the Pay As You Earn plan Only loans made under the Direct Loan Program are eligible for repayment under Pay As You Earn Eligible loans are Direct Subsidized Loans Direct Unsubsidized Loans Direct PLUS Loans made to graduate or professional students and Direct Consolidation Loans that did not repay any PLUS loans that were made to parent borrowers Loans that are currently in default Direct PLUS Loans made to parents Direct Consolidation Loans that repaid PLUS loans made to parents and Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program loans are NOT eligible for repayment under Pay As You Earn
Who is eligible for Pay As You Earn You must be a new borrower You are a new borrower if you had no outstanding balance on a Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan as of Oct 1 2007 or if you had no outstanding balance on a Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan when you received a new Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan on or after Oct 1 2007 In addition you must have received a disbursement of a Direct Subsidized Loan Direct Unsubsidized Loan or Direct PLUS Loan for graduate or professional students on or after Oct 1 2011 or you must have received a Direct Consolidation Loan based on an application that was received on or after Oct 1 2011 In addition to your being a new borrower your federal student loan debt must be high relative to your income While your loan servicer will perform the calculation to determine your eligibility for Pay As You Earn you can use the US Department of Education s Pay As You Earn calculator at httpstudentaidedgovPayAsYouEarn to estimate whether you would likely qualify for the Pay As You Earn plan The calculator looks at your income family size and state of residence to calculate your Pay As You Earn monthly payment amount If that amount is lower than the monthly payment you would be required to pay on your eligible loans under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan then you are eligible to repay your loans under the Pay As You Earn plan
If you are married and you and your spouse le a joint federal tax return and if your spouse also has eligible federal student loans your spouse s eligible loan debt is taken into account when determining whether you are eligible for Pay As You Earn In this case the required monthly payment amount under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan is determined based on the combined amount of your eligible loans If the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would be required to pay under Pay As You Earn is lower than the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan you and your spouse are eligible for Pay As You Earn Although only Direct Loans may be repaid under Pay As You Earn your (and if you are married and file a joint federal tax returnPay As You Earn based on the amount of your federal student loan debt relative to your income For this purpose eligible FFEL Program loans are Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans FFEL PLUS Loans for graduate or professional students and FFEL Consolidation Loans that did not repay any PLUS loans for parents FFEL Program loans that are currently in default FFEL PLUS Loans for parents and FFEL Consolidation Loans that repaid PLUS loans for parents are not counted as eligible loan debt
Pay As You Earn
LOWER SCHEDULED MONTHLY PAYMENT Under Pay As You Earn your monthly payment amount will be less than the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan and may be less than under other repayment plans
INTEREST PAYMENT BENEFIT If your monthly Pay As You Earn payment amount does not cover the full amount
of interest that accrues on your loans each month the government will pay your unpaid accrued interest on your Direct Subsidized Loans (and on the subsidized portion of your Direct Consolidation Loans) for up to three consecutive years from the date you begin repaying your loans under Pay As You Earn
20-shyYEAR CANCELLATION If you repay under the Pay As You Earn plan any remaining balance will be forgiven
after 20 years of qualifying repayment
10-shyYEAR PUBLIC SERVICE LOAN FORGIVENESS On-shytime full monthly payments you make under Pay As You Earn (or certain other repayment plans) while employed full-shytime in a public service job will count toward the 120 monthly payments that are required to receive loan forgiveness through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program Through this program you may be eligible to have the remaining balance of your Direct Loans forgiven after you have made the 120 qualifying payments as described above PSLF is available only for Direct Loans but you may be eligible to consolidate FFEL Program loans into the Direct Loan Program to take advantage of PSLF For more information visit StudentAidgovpublicservice

Are there any disadvantages to repaying under Pay As You Earn
YOU MAY PAY MORE INTEREST The faster you repay your loans the less interest you pay Because a reduced monthly payment under the Pay As You Earn plan generally extends your repayment period you may pay more total interest over the life of the loan than you would under other repayment plans
YOU MUST SUBMIT ANNUAL DOCUMENTATION To set your payment amount each year your loan servicer
needs updated information about your income and family size If you do not provide the documentation your monthly payment amount will be the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan based on the amount you owed when you began repaying under Pay As You Earn
How is the Pay As You Earn amount determined Under Pay As You Earn the amount you are required to repay each month is based on your adjusted gross income (AGI) and family size If you are married and le a joint federal tax return with your spouse your AGI includes both your income and your spouse s income The annual Pay As You Earn repayment amount is 10 percent of the difference between your AGI and 150 percent of the Department of Health and Human Services Poverty Guideline for your family size and state This amount is then divided by 12 to get the monthly Pay As You Earn repayment amount
The following chart shows the maximum Pay As You Earn monthly payment amounts for a sample range of incomes and family sizes using the Poverty Guidelines that were in effect as of Jan 26 2012 for the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia

After the determination of your eligibility for Pay As You Earn your payment may be adjusted each year based on changes in your income and family size However as long as you remain on the Pay As You Earn repayment plan your required monthly payment amount will never be more than what you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan
Are there examples of borrowers who are eligible for Pay As You Earn and borrowers who are not Example 1 Based upon the Pay As You Earn repayment formula a borrower with a family size of one and an AGI of $30000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated payment amount of $110 per month If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $25000 when the loans initially entered repayment and the loan balance had increased to $30000 when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on the higher of the two amounts Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard payment amount for $30000 would be $345 Since the $110 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $345 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $110 However if this borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $5000 the 10-shyyear standard payment would be $58 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $110 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible
Example 2 A borrower with a family size of four and income of $50000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated monthly payment amount of $129 If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $20000 when the loans initially entered repayment and this amount had not changed when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on $20000 Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard repayment amount for $20000 would be $230 Since the $129 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $230 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $129 However if the borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $10000 the 10-shyyear calculated amount would be $115 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $129 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible

Federal Student Aid Pay As You Earn Repayment Plan for the Direct Loan Program
StudentAidgov
What is Pay As You Earn Pay As You Earn is a repayment plan for eligible Direct Loans that is designed to limit your required monthly payment to an amount that is affordable based on your income and family size
What federal student loans are eligible to be repaid under the Pay As You Earn plan Only loans made under the Direct Loan Program are eligible for repayment under Pay As You Earn Eligible loans are Direct Subsidized Loans Direct Unsubsidized Loans Direct PLUS Loans made to graduate or professional students and Direct Consolidation Loans that did not repay any PLUS loans that were made to parent borrowers Loans that are currently in default Direct PLUS Loans made to parents Direct Consolidation Loans that repaid PLUS loans made to parents and Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program loans are NOT eligible for repayment under Pay As You Earn
Who is eligible for Pay As You Earn You must be a new borrower You are a new borrower if you had no outstanding balance on a Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan as of Oct 1 2007 or if you had no outstanding balance on a Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan when you received a new Direct Loan or FFEL Program loan on or after Oct 1 2007 In addition you must have received a disbursement of a Direct Subsidized Loan Direct Unsubsidized Loan or Direct PLUS Loan for graduate or professional students on or after Oct 1 2011 or you must have received a Direct Consolidation Loan based on an application that was received on or after Oct 1 2011 In addition to your being a new borrower your federal student loan debt must be high relative to your income While your loan servicer will perform the calculation to determine your eligibility for Pay As You Earn you can use the US Department of Education s Pay As You Earn calculator at httpstudentaidedgovPayAsYouEarn to estimate whether you would likely qualify for the Pay As You Earn plan The calculator looks at your income family size and state of residence to calculate your Pay As You Earn monthly payment amount If that amount is lower than the monthly payment you would be required to pay on your eligible loans under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan then you are eligible to repay your loans under the Pay As You Earn plan
If you are married and you and your spouse le a joint federal tax return and if your spouse also has eligible federal student loans your spouse s eligible loan debt is taken into account when determining whether you are eligible for Pay As You Earn In this case the required monthly payment amount under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan is determined based on the combined amount of your eligible loans If the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would be required to pay under Pay As You Earn is lower than the combined monthly amount you and your spouse would pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan you and your spouse are eligible for Pay As You Earn Although only Direct Loans may be repaid under Pay As You Earn your (and if you are married and file a joint federal tax returnPay As You Earn based on the amount of your federal student loan debt relative to your income For this purpose eligible FFEL Program loans are Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans FFEL PLUS Loans for graduate or professional students and FFEL Consolidation Loans that did not repay any PLUS loans for parents FFEL Program loans that are currently in default FFEL PLUS Loans for parents and FFEL Consolidation Loans that repaid PLUS loans for parents are not counted as eligible loan debt
Pay As You Earn
LOWER SCHEDULED MONTHLY PAYMENT Under Pay As You Earn your monthly payment amount will be less than the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan and may be less than under other repayment plans
INTEREST PAYMENT BENEFIT If your monthly Pay As You Earn payment amount does not cover the full amount
of interest that accrues on your loans each month the government will pay your unpaid accrued interest on your Direct Subsidized Loans (and on the subsidized portion of your Direct Consolidation Loans) for up to three consecutive years from the date you begin repaying your loans under Pay As You Earn
20-shyYEAR CANCELLATION If you repay under the Pay As You Earn plan any remaining balance will be forgiven
after 20 years of qualifying repayment
10-shyYEAR PUBLIC SERVICE LOAN FORGIVENESS On-shytime full monthly payments you make under Pay As You Earn (or certain other repayment plans) while employed full-shytime in a public service job will count toward the 120 monthly payments that are required to receive loan forgiveness through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program Through this program you may be eligible to have the remaining balance of your Direct Loans forgiven after you have made the 120 qualifying payments as described above PSLF is available only for Direct Loans but you may be eligible to consolidate FFEL Program loans into the Direct Loan Program to take advantage of PSLF For more information visit StudentAidgovpublicservice

Are there any disadvantages to repaying under Pay As You Earn
YOU MAY PAY MORE INTEREST The faster you repay your loans the less interest you pay Because a reduced monthly payment under the Pay As You Earn plan generally extends your repayment period you may pay more total interest over the life of the loan than you would under other repayment plans
YOU MUST SUBMIT ANNUAL DOCUMENTATION To set your payment amount each year your loan servicer
needs updated information about your income and family size If you do not provide the documentation your monthly payment amount will be the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan based on the amount you owed when you began repaying under Pay As You Earn
How is the Pay As You Earn amount determined Under Pay As You Earn the amount you are required to repay each month is based on your adjusted gross income (AGI) and family size If you are married and le a joint federal tax return with your spouse your AGI includes both your income and your spouse s income The annual Pay As You Earn repayment amount is 10 percent of the difference between your AGI and 150 percent of the Department of Health and Human Services Poverty Guideline for your family size and state This amount is then divided by 12 to get the monthly Pay As You Earn repayment amount
The following chart shows the maximum Pay As You Earn monthly payment amounts for a sample range of incomes and family sizes using the Poverty Guidelines that were in effect as of Jan 26 2012 for the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia

After the determination of your eligibility for Pay As You Earn your payment may be adjusted each year based on changes in your income and family size However as long as you remain on the Pay As You Earn repayment plan your required monthly payment amount will never be more than what you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan
Are there examples of borrowers who are eligible for Pay As You Earn and borrowers who are not Example 1 Based upon the Pay As You Earn repayment formula a borrower with a family size of one and an AGI of $30000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated payment amount of $110 per month If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $25000 when the loans initially entered repayment and the loan balance had increased to $30000 when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on the higher of the two amounts Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard payment amount for $30000 would be $345 Since the $110 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $345 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $110 However if this borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $5000 the 10-shyyear standard payment would be $58 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $110 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible
Example 2 A borrower with a family size of four and income of $50000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated monthly payment amount of $129 If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $20000 when the loans initially entered repayment and this amount had not changed when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on $20000 Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard repayment amount for $20000 would be $230 Since the $129 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $230 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $129 However if the borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $10000 the 10-shyyear calculated amount would be $115 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $129 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible

Are there any disadvantages to repaying under Pay As You Earn
YOU MAY PAY MORE INTEREST The faster you repay your loans the less interest you pay Because a reduced monthly payment under the Pay As You Earn plan generally extends your repayment period you may pay more total interest over the life of the loan than you would under other repayment plans
YOU MUST SUBMIT ANNUAL DOCUMENTATION To set your payment amount each year your loan servicer
needs updated information about your income and family size If you do not provide the documentation your monthly payment amount will be the amount you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan based on the amount you owed when you began repaying under Pay As You Earn
How is the Pay As You Earn amount determined Under Pay As You Earn the amount you are required to repay each month is based on your adjusted gross income (AGI) and family size If you are married and le a joint federal tax return with your spouse your AGI includes both your income and your spouse s income The annual Pay As You Earn repayment amount is 10 percent of the difference between your AGI and 150 percent of the Department of Health and Human Services Poverty Guideline for your family size and state This amount is then divided by 12 to get the monthly Pay As You Earn repayment amount
The following chart shows the maximum Pay As You Earn monthly payment amounts for a sample range of incomes and family sizes using the Poverty Guidelines that were in effect as of Jan 26 2012 for the 48 contiguous states and the District of Columbia

After the determination of your eligibility for Pay As You Earn your payment may be adjusted each year based on changes in your income and family size However as long as you remain on the Pay As You Earn repayment plan your required monthly payment amount will never be more than what you would be required to pay under a 10-shyyear Standard Repayment Plan
Are there examples of borrowers who are eligible for Pay As You Earn and borrowers who are not Example 1 Based upon the Pay As You Earn repayment formula a borrower with a family size of one and an AGI of $30000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated payment amount of $110 per month If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $25000 when the loans initially entered repayment and the loan balance had increased to $30000 when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on the higher of the two amounts Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard payment amount for $30000 would be $345 Since the $110 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $345 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $110 However if this borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $5000 the 10-shyyear standard payment would be $58 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $110 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible
Example 2 A borrower with a family size of four and income of $50000 would have a Pay As You Earn calculated monthly payment amount of $129 If this borrower had total eligible student loan debt of $20000 when the loans initially entered repayment and this amount had not changed when the borrower requested Pay As You Earn the calculated monthly repayment amount under a 10-shyyear standard plan would be based on $20000 Using an interest rate of 68 the 10-shyyear standard repayment amount for $20000 would be $230 Since the $129 Pay As You Earn calculated amount is less than the 10-shyyear plan amount of $230 the borrower would be eligible to repay under Pay As You Earn at a monthly amount of $129 However if the borrower s total eligible loan debt used to calculate the 10-shyyear standard amount was only $10000 the 10-shyyear calculated amount would be $115 per month which is less than the Pay As You Earn amount of $129 Therefore the borrower would not be eligible
