This Repayment Assistance Plan application is for your Alberta student loan only. If you are approved for the Repayment Assistance
Plan, your loan payment terms will be altered during your approved period. Your monthly payment amount will be reduced to an
affordable payment that will never exceed 20% of your gross family income, and may be reduced to a zero payment amount. During
an approved period of the Repayment Assistance Plan, all payments will be applied to your principal rst. If you are not approved,
you will remain responsible for making your regular loan payments in accordance with your payment terms.
Periods of Assistance: The Repayment Assistance Plan is available in 6 month blocks of time (to a maximum of 180 months)
at any point during your loan repayment period.
Re-Application: At the end of your 6 month term, if you wish to continue with the Repayment Assistance Plan, you must re-apply.
If not, you are responsible for making your regular payments in accordance with your payment terms. At the end of your approval
period, you will return to your regular payment schedule, but your amoritzation period may be extended.
Restrictions: If you are approved for the Repayment Assistance Plan, you may be subject to restrictions if you fail to make all your
affordable payments by the end of the month following your 6 month approved period. A restriction will prevent you from obtaining
further loans and grants until you have fully paid your existing student and/or apprentice loans.
