Is anyone still getting finalist emails after being "Under Review" all this time. I'm thinking I probably just didn't get it.

Don't give up hope! The application cycle doesn't end until Sept 30th. Last year my friend got it in the last 2 weeks of the cycle closure. Also, check your spam mail. Some people said their confirmation of interest went there. Best of luck!

What do you mean by transfer and tier?

If you transfer sites, then you have to get approval from HRSA to do so. You should read the application packet and/or call them directly.

Another colleague of mine just got awarded today. Don't give up hope guys!

Does anyone know if the new bill that makes federal loan pardoning tax-exempt will impact the nurse corp loan repayment program?  Does anyone who has qualified in the past have any tips for filing taxes so that its clear that it isn't technically income?  

I just had my first payment processed and it was taxed.

I also received my first payment yesterday and it was taxed

Did it come to your bank yet? Mine has not, just says processed. Thank you!

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if anyone has ever successfully transferred their loan to a new hospital? I was recently awarded the Nurse Corps LRP and just received my first payment! My score is currently 22 and my D/I is 128. 

I just got offered to interview for my dream job. I really didn't think it was going to be a possibility for 5+ years and now that I have the opportunity, I worry this window will not be open again for years. 

The place I could be moving to has a score of 16. I know 3 people there who currently have the Nurse Corps LRP, so I know it is possible. 

Scared to leave so much potential loan repayment on the table, but also scared to pass up on my dream job. Trying to have my cake and eat it too.

Has anyone transferred their loans?

I am in the process of transferring mine. As long as they are in the same tier, which they are, it shouldn't be a problem. Good luck!

I have USAA and always receive things earlier than most people in my bank account. It was in my bank account yesterday

Well I’m not completely out yet I guess. Just received a COI…I’ll update y’all if anything happens further than this.
 

To give anyone else hope, I’m a Tier 2 NP but not Women’s Health.

I got my NHSC lump sum deposited into my bank account today. For those of you who went with NHSC, my 90 days would have been October 5th so they were a little ahead of schedule for me.

Another update: I received a co-signature this morning 9/26 around 6am. No change on my portal (still says Award Accepted - Under Final Review), but my signed contract now shows my signature and that of a Grant Officer at HRSA.
