Yes, but only if you periodically submit the Employment Certification for Public Service Loan
Forgiveness form (Employment Certification form) that has been developed by ED and is available at
This Website. You are encouraged to submit this form to ED’s PSLF
servicer, FedLoan Servicing (PHEAA), annually while you are working to fulfill the employment and
payment requirements for PSLF so that you will receive feedback on the eligibility of your employment
and payments for a specified employment period.
The PSLF servicer will review each Employment Certification form you submit to confirm that your
employer qualifies as a public service organization. If it is your first submission of an Employment
Certification form, all of your ED-held loans will be transferred to the PSLF servicer, which will then
verify that the loan payments you made during the period covered by the Employment Certification
form are qualifying payments. After reviewing your Employment Certification form, the PSLF servicer
will tell you how many qualifying payments you have made toward the required 120 payments.
