Can I start making payments for PSLF if am I currently enrolled in law school and am working full time?  Or should I finish law school and then start making payments?

Thanks!

When you are in school more than 1/2 time, your loans are placed into in school deferment.  You should be able to get your undergraduate loans out of deferment and choose IBR now IF you have already used the grace periods, but it’s going to be a bit of work, since the system is designed to automatically place them into deferment, and you’ll need to make a number of calls and potentially write some letters.  New Stafford loans can’t enter repayment status until after the grace period, but GradPLUS loans don’t technically have a grace.
