Sherman Dorn blogged today about the difficulties his wife has had getting Nelnet (a loan company that has engaged in nefarious practices in the past) to process her paperwork for the federal loan forgiveness program. The program provides loan forgiveness up to $17,500 for teachers who teach in hard to staff subject areas, like special education.
Dorn wants to know if anyone else has had similar troubles getting their loan forgiveness paperwork processed. My guess is that yes, there are others out there with the same problem.
