2019 Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program

Published

Hi Everyone,

I didn't see a thread created for the 2019 Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program yet. This will be my 3rd year applying. I'm applying as a staff RN with a HPSA score of 17. Hopefully, they open the application cycle soon.

Just saw a credit check for the third year continuation! Seems to be moving way faster than the initial award. 

I am first time applying and got a credit check on 4/27/21. If awarded, do I have to pay taxes on it? I see conflicting information about that. Also, is it a monthly payment award? 

Thanks

YES!  You do have to pay taxes on it.

If awarded they withhold federal taxes, but not state taxes. Depending on your income they may not even withhold enough federal tax. I save a set amount each month to cover state taxes. It is a monthly payout of the award for 24 months. Hope this helps and good luck!

I still have not received a credit check.  

I got a credit check a while back. I also got a message in the portal yesterday welcoming me. Did anyone else get that message? Does that mean my continuation was approved?

Congratulations! That’s fantastic news! 

Does anyone know of someone not getting a continuation award while meeting all the qualifications? I haven't had a credit check yet and it makes me pretty worried! I received my initial award in 2019. Nurse faculty.
