Student Loan Tax Elimination Act
HR 3165, the Student Loan Tax Elimination Act, repeals origination fees charged when borrowers receive new federal direct student loans. This directly affects new borrowers taking out federal direct loans under part D of Title IV of the Higher Education Act. The bill removes an upfront fee paid at loan disbursement, reducing the initial cost for these borrowers. The change applies to loans with first disbursement or consolidation applications received on or after July 1 following the bill's enactment.
