      First of all you can't file bankruptcy. Bankruptcy doesn't cover student loans or tax debt....that's one of the reasons anyone can get a student loan.

      Second you probably can't sell the car if you owe more on it than you can sell it for. (Likely if you've only had it a year)
      The bank won't release the title to the car until the entire loan is paid off....so if you can't get that much for it then you can't sell it.

      Student loans aren't made by the government...they're guaranteed by the government but it is private lending institutions that actually loan and collect the money.

      If you're far enough behind to be in default (several months at least I'd assume) but you were budgeting to make your payment every month then you ought to have a big stack of cash set aside from those payments that you didn't make to get you out of default and back on schedule.

      If you went out and blew the loan payment money because they weren't sending you an invoice then its your own damn fault and you gotta pay the piper.

        I was told that State guaranteed loans can not be rehibilitated. This was told to me by the collector so I want to take it with a grain of salt. He told me to pay them back 20% and then pay the rest over 24 months. Does this sound right?

          If you want a contact for an attempt to consolidate the student loans, drop me a note. I can help with a contact, I cannot warrant the response.

              I have no idea, if it was guaranteed by the state then those laws will be specific to your state.

              Your best bet would be to find the controlling agency within your state and talk to them. (I'd start with the department of education)
              Then you can find out all the rules and regs and what you can and can't do.

              If he wants 20% and you don't have it then what are they going to do? Their only real recourse it to garnish your wages and take any tax refund that you are due. (Both of those are unlikely if you're self employed)

                Having said that, if it's in collections, call the collection agency. They would rather collect money from you than write it off as a bad debt or incur the legal fees to take you to court.

                Yep, amen to that. Although they will pretend to want to take you to court. They're shady like that.

                    the basic lesson is to stay the hell out of school, way waste 4-6 years and earn a low salary working for some fag? school is no longer needed, its just a complete waste of money. its only for immigrants that we need to operate and program machines.

                      You think that's bad I had Florida pre paid college credits I was using and got a loan from financial aid. Well they took out both my college credits and my tuition from my load (money that was supposed to go to me to help me live) and now I am paying for college twice - they say I owe over 13k in student loans when I only ever got 4,000 over 4 years MAX. School fucked up and now I've been paying for it for the last 8 years. I need a lawyer.

                          Shady? They are trying to collect on a debt he incurred.

                          They can and will proceed with legal action. Gone are the days when all a collection agency could do was call and harass....now they put it into the hands of attorneys and they take you to court.

                          The guy defaulted on a loan. He owes the money.

                          And, if he doesn't pay, it screws his credit up forever.

                                I contacted this fucking company (ACS) numerous times to tell them of my address change, they made no attempt at contacting me to let me know the loan was going to be sent to collections. Fucking thieves. Now I'm basically fucking screwed. I'm too young (no pun intended) and own a small business so I can't even think of filing bankruptcy. My credit was ok until this bomb was dropped on it. Now I have $35k in a car, $5k in Federal loans, $2k in credit cards on there so another loan is out of the question.
                                The $16k for Student State loans are due immediately. I don't think any debt consolidation is going to deal with defualted loans.

                                Any suggestions would be appreciated. This fucking sucks.

                                  He CAN'T!!
                                  He probably owes more on it than its worth...if he can't sell it for enough to pay off the loan then he won't get the title from the bank and therefore can't sell it.

                                  I admit buying it might not have been the wisest idea, but its too late now.

                                    indeed, sell your car and get a cheaper one, and your debts shall go away.

                                      Credit unions are sometimes more willing to help with something like this than a bank. Give one a try.

                                        Yes he can. He'll just lose a big chunk of cash because of it, but it's the only way for him to get out of the hole. He got the car for $35k. Let's assume he can sell it for $20k-$25k. I don't know how old it is, just throwing numbers out there. He can pay off his student loan in one lump sum and he'll be stuck with a few grand change and a car loan to pay off week to week. Yeah, he'll be paying for a car he no longer owns or gets to drive, but at least he'll be paying off a non-defaulted loan over time instead of having his ass handed to him. He fucked up. He's going to take a big hit no matter what he does, and selling his car is the best option he's got.
