The Biden administration is once again extending the pause on federally-held student loan payments and interest accrual, this time keeping the benefit in effect through August 31. The announcement follows the White House’s continued extension of the loan moratorium on student loan payments and interest accrual set in place at the outset of the pandemic in March 2020. This latest extension now marks the second time that the Department of Education (ED) has extended the freeze past what was argued to be the “final” such extension of the program. In December, the payment pause was extended through May 1, 2022.
