THE EMPLOYER’S ROLE IN PUBLIC SERVICE LOAN FORGIVENESS

To benefit from Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), a current or past
employee (otherwise referred to as “borrower”) is required to submit a PSLF
form. This form requires you (the employer) to verify certain information such
as:

 * the Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN/EIN) your organization uses
   for payroll purposes.

 * the dates of employment for the employee (including full-time or part-time
   status)

 * your name, title, contact information and signature.

   

Dates of employment can be certified by an official who has access to the
employee’s employment or service records and is authorized by your organization
to certify employment or service. This will often be someone in the human
resources department, though in some cases it may be a direct supervisor or
another individual authorized to certify.

Current or past employees may be using the PSLF Help Tool, which provides
digital signature and submission capabilities. You, or an authorizing official
at your organization, may receive an email from the Department of Education’s
(ED) office of Federal Student Aid via DocuSign (dse_NA4@docusign.net)
requesting you certify employment and digitally sign the form.

Once you review the employee’s form and certify it by applying your digital
signature, the employee’s information will be captured for processing.

You may also receive manual forms from an employee who elects to not use the
PSLF Help Tool.

Occasionally, ED or the loan servicer may reach out to you or your employee to
confirm your PSLF eligibility or because your employee has submitted an
incomplete manual PSLF form. We encourage borrowers to use the PSLF Help Tool as
it will ensure all fields are complete so PSLF forms can be processed more
efficiently.

For more information on the role of an employer in PSLF, read our article

Because of legislation passed by Congress, student loan payments have restarted.
