Another option to consider: If you can't work, your federal student loans can be discharged if you have a permanent and total disability. Your doctor describes and attests to your illness on a simple form. The form is sent in and reviewed. Once approved, all federal loans are discharged BUT your income and student loan activities are monitored for 3 years afterwards to make sure you're not gaming the system.
If you have federal student loans and a serious permanent disability, there is financial relief- if you do the simple paperwork.
