Supplemental Information for Consolidation Loans
In the event of PLUS consolidation, any portion of your Federal Consolidation Loan that is attributable for a dependent who is deceased, the portion of your Federal Consolidation loan taken out for that dependent will be discharged as of the date of the dependent’s death.
In the event of a spousal consolidation, if one of the borrowers dies or becomes totally and permanently disabled the amount to be discharged will be based upon the portion of the outstanding consolidation loan attributable to that borrower’s loans that would have been eligible for discharge. Both borrowers on the spousal consolidation loan are still jointly and severally liable for repayment of the remaining portion of the consolidation loan for those circumstances other than death.
