At the time of my divorce my ex-husband was feeling particularly guiltly about his sins, so he agreed to pay for all of the marital debt. Particularly, he agreed to pay for my student loans because I did not get to finish my education because of what he did. Years later, the three student loans have gone into default due to non-payment and/or late payments and of course the credit repercussions and threats of garnishment are all against me since the loans are in my name alone. Not to mention, I owe more now than I did at the time of my divorce due to penalties and interest. Is there an attorney at the Department of Education that I can send my Divorce Judgment to that would then re-issue the loans in his name? Would I have to get a specific court order asking that the loans be put in his name or would that help either?
Thank you so much for any assistance!
