Thread: Student loan?

I and my wife are divorcing after 115 years of marriage. She incurred over 50,000 in debt from student loans. When we divorce is it legal for her lawyer to make me pay half her student loans which are only in her name. The loans were taken out while we were married. And if so can I make her pay half of my loans and other bills that are just in my name but have ruined my credit and they also were incurred during the marriage? Any help would be great.

I hope not - that would suck.

How about checking with the local state? I would think they would help. However, your results must be good of course.

Student Loan Question: Ask for a Financial Deferrment with Your Student Loan Lender, you can Defer Student Loans for up to 3 years. Also, In regards to your Divorce Situation, A lawyer should be willing to take on your case. The Law states everything is shared, His and Hers Debts!

Oh boy. This is too funny.

The answer to the post is to call your current student loan provider and ask for a deferment. If that is not an option ask for a forbearance. You can almost always find a way to delay repayment.

So anyone knows if there r ways of paying it off asap perhaps through loan forgiveness programs? bursaries? In Quebec, of course.

Doing part time jobs is the best idea for you...you can also earn money and have a good use of your time also...it will really helps you to repaying your bank loan...!
