Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Discharge

You may be eligible for a TPD Discharge on your federal student loans if you are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that:

  • Can be expected to result in death
  • Has lasted for a continuous period of not less than 60 months
  • Can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 60 months; or
  • Has been determined by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to make you unemployable due to a service-connected disability. To apply for this discharge, you must have a physician certify the discharge application. For more information, go to Total and Permanent Disability Discharge.
