Millions of Americans are poised to take hits to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/08/40611128/us-supreme-court-declines-to-revive-biden-administrations-student-debt-relief-plan">their credit ratings</a> as the Biden administration&#8217;s one-year moratorium on reporting late student loan payments to credit agencies will come to an end in just a few weeks.
About 9.7 million, or 29%, of student loan borrowers in the U.S. were late on payments, according a <a href="http://chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.gao.gov/assets/880/870313.pdf">report </a>released in late July by the Government Accountability Office. About 60% of those borrowers were at least three months behind in payments.
 In March 2020, a forbearance on student loans put in place by former President Donald Trump allowed borrowers to stop making loan payments without incurring interest costs and getting reported to the credit agencies.

That forbearance ended on Sept. 30, 2023, so President Joe Biden implemented a 12-month &#8220;on-ramp&#8221; period during which student loan servicers could not report loan delinquencies to credit agencies.
That provision will end on Sept. 30, leaving millions of borrowers who are still late on their loans open to damaging hits to their credit scores, which banks use to approve loans, landlords use to approve rental agreements and so on. 
Transfers from Education to the Treasury indicate a steady fall in student loan repayments over the past year. Last summer, monthly transfers were about $7 billion, but that figure fell last month the figure to $4.1 billion.
The Biden administration has forgiven some $168.5 billion in student debt through various programs, but the courts have blocked its attempts to pass a Save on a Valuable Education (SAVE) student loan relief program.
Most recently, U.S. District Judge J. Randal Hall temporarily blocked the Biden administration&#8217;s latest student debt relief plan on Sept. 5 in a lawsuit brought by Seven Republican-led states.

Student Loan Protection Soon Ends, 9.7M Borrowers Should Be Worried About Their Credit Ratings

U.S. District Judge J. Randal Hall on Thursday temporarily blocked the Biden administration's latest student debt relief plan in a lawsuit brought by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40696394/inflation-jobs-and-taxes-how-trump-and-harris-economic-policies-differ">seven Republican-led states (Missouri, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, North Dakota and Ohio). </a>
The Details: Judge Hall issued a<a href="https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/legaldocs/mopaqgblapa/09052024studentloan.pdf"> temporary restraining order</a> after Republican state attorneys general<a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/republican-led-us-states-sue-over-new-biden-student-debt-relief-plan-2024-09-03/"> </a>filed a lawsuit to block a rule the Education Department proposed which would allow it to provide full or partial deft relief to certain types of borrowers.

The judge determined that the suit had established a likelihood of proving the Education Department lacked authority to cancel student loans.&nbsp;
&#8220;This is especially true in light of the recent rulings across the country striking down similar federal student loan forgiveness plans,&#8221; Hall wrote.
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a Biden administration plea in a separate case that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40633593/whats-going-on-with-sofi-technologies-stock">sought to revive</a> the Savings on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan to provide relief to borrowers with federal student loan debt.
Why It Matters: The court&#8217;s denial is potentially a positive development for student loan providers including SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>), Navient Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAVI#NASDAQ">NAVI</a>) and SLM Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>). Student loan providers would lose revenue in the form of interest payments and loan origination fees if student loan forgiveness or deferment resulted from a debt relief plan. 
SOFI, NAVI, SLM Price Action: According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, SoFi Technologies shares ended Thursday's session down 2.94% at $7.26, Navient shares closed down 0.25% at $15.99 and SLM shares ended Thursday 0.99% lower at $20.93.

US Judge Temporarily Blocks Biden's Latest Student Loan Relief Plan: Why It Matters

The Supreme Court rejected a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/07/39849095/appeals-court-blocks-bidens-save-student-loan-debt-relief-plan">Biden administration plea </a>Wednesday that sought to revive the Savings on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan to tackle federal student loan debt.
In a brief order, the court denied an emergency request filed by the administration that sought to lift a nationwide injunction imposed by an appeals court. 
There were no noted dissents, CNBC <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-refuses-revive-bidens-latest-student-loan-debt-relief-pl-rcna167455">reported</a>.
The Education Department issued a regulation finalizing SAVE in July 2023, the month after the Supreme Court ruled that the administration lacked authority to implement President Joe Biden's earlier loan forgiveness program.
The new effort, like the previous one, was challenged by multiple conservative-leaning states.
The new proposal has several provisions, including one that would cap the amount people have to repay for undergraduate loans at 5% of their incomes. Previously the cap was 10%.
Opponents to SAVE say it would require spending up to $475 billion that was not authorized by Congress. They say it should be blocked for the same reason that the Supreme Court blocked Biden's earlier plan.

Under the "major questions" doctrine embraced by the court's conservative justices, federal agencies cannot initiate sweeping new policies that have significant economic effects without having authorization from Congress.
The states argue in court papers that the Biden administration's "assertion of unfettered authority to cancel every penny of every loan is staggering."
In an Aug. 9 decision, the St. Louis, Missouri-based 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a more sweeping injunction putting the entire plan, which has about 8 million borrowers on it, on hold.
The denial comes as the Biden administration&#8217;s 12-month &#8220;on-ramp&#8221; period for loan repayments approaches expiration on Sept. 30 following the end of former President Donald Trump&#8217;s pandemic forbearance a year earlier.
The Trump forbearance, which began in March 2020, allowed borrowers to stop making loan payments without incurring interest costs and getting reported to the credit agencies.
Once the Biden &#8220;on-ramp&#8221; period ends, student loan servicers can start reporting payment delinquencies on loans to credit agencies.
Biden&#8217;s &#8220;on-ramp&#8221; period, which began on Sept. 30 of last year, prohibited loan servicers from reporting late payments to credit agencies in an effort to give borrowers the chance to work loan payments back into their budgets after not paying them for 3.5 years, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/26/student-loan-payment-on-ramp-ends-september-30.html">reported</a>.
Price Action: Student loan servicers gave mixed reactions to Wednesday&#8217;s Supreme Court decision as of Wednesday&#8217;s late-afternoon trading.
<ul>
<li>SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>) fell 3.86% to $7.47</li>

A federal appeals court has blocked President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration from implementing its Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39845798/whats-going-on-with-sofi-technologies-stock">student debt relief plan.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: The St. Louis-based 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted a request by seven states to put on hold parts of the U.S. Department of Education&#8217;s debt relief plan. Combined with a previous ruling last month by U.S. District Judge John Ross in St. Louis, the entire SAVE plan is now blocked from being implemented as the legal process continues. 
&#8220;Appellants&#8217; emergency motion for an administrative stay prohibiting the appellees from implementing or acting pursuant to the Final Rule until this Court rules on the appellants&#8217; motion for an injunction pending appeal is granted,&#8221; 8th Circuit Court stated in its ruling.&nbsp;

According to a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/save-plan-blocked-student-loan-borrowers-cheaper-payments-debt-cancellation-2024-7">report </a>from Business Insider, the Department of Education's Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar recently responded to the court on the confusion that would be caused if implementation of the SAVE plan was blocked at this stage.&nbsp;
&#8220;Many have already received bills that reflect the decrease in monthly payments to 5% of their discretionary income,&#8221; Prelogar wrote. &#8220;Many would experience intense confusion when they are told that their payments must be recalculated and that they must be placed in forbearance — which would delay any eventual loan forgiveness.&#8221;
Some companies that service student loans include SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>), Nelnet, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNI#NYSE">NNI</a>), Navient Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAVI#NASDAQ">NAVI</a>) and SLM Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLM#NASDAQ">SLM</a>).
