S 4146 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires certain employers to provide certain employees with notifications concerning federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.

This bill requires employers in New Jersey who qualify for the federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness program to inform new employees about the program during their initial benefits explanation. The notification must cover eligibility criteria, such as working at least 30 hours per week, holding federal Direct Loans, being on an income-driven repayment plan, and making 120 qualifying payments. The law applies immediately to any qualifying employer hiring new staff and aims to ensure workers are aware of potential loan forgiveness opportunities from the start of their employment.
