A 2171 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires State agencies to enroll State employees into federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program.

This bill requires New Jersey state agencies to automatically enroll eligible full-time employees in the federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program (PSLF). It directs the Department of Education to match state employment data with federal loan records to identify qualifying employees, then share that information with relevant agencies. Agencies must enroll employees at hire and transfer PSLF enrollment details when employees move between state agencies. The law applies specifically to state employees who meet federal PSLF criteria (like working full-time for a public employer while making qualifying loan payments).
