IHS repayment and the va?

Hello!

I am am a relative new grad with a few months OR experience under my belt. I have about 46k in student loans from a BSN nursing degree. My tuition was paid for because I'm a disabled vet, the loans were for childcare and housing, really so we could live. My question is since I used va chapter 31 va voc rehab for tuition will the Indian health services still pay off my loans? I know that the va will not if I work at a va facility.. I have been semi offered a position and would love to take it.. If they will repay my loans.

So what I'm saying is my tuition was paid but I still took loans out in pursuit of this degree, will they still pay my loans off? I want to accept the position because I will be a great fit but I can't pull the trigger and move to BFE with out this really nice incentive.

thanks!

I would first contact who ever is servicing your loan and ask them directly. Now off the top of my head I would say "Yes" they will pay it but it's always nice to hear it from the "horse's mouth" to be on the safe side.
