According to reports, approximately 9 million applicants for President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness program received emails erroneously stating that their requests for debt relief had been granted. The Department of Education forwarded emails last month with the wrong subject line informing recipients that their requests for debt relief had been approved. As the administration waits for the outcome of legal challenges, decisions on the applications have been put on hold. The email was accurate for the rest of it.

The Supreme Court Will Review The Case Against Biden’s Student Debt-Relief Program

As of Thursday, the program was halted by the Supreme Court until further notice, as the circuit agreed to hear the arguments against the relief program.
