The guaranty agency is listed on my CR with open dates 11/2001 and closed 1/2002 as Paid collection due to fall off 10/2008.
NSLDS states defaulted unresolved 11/16/01 then paid off in consolidation 2/25/2004 for this same loan.
Since this was consolidated, shouldn't it fall off CR 7 years from DOFD leading to default? Isn't a loan defaulted after 270 days late---which would mean this should not currently be listed on my CR's, correct?
Thanks in advance!

Nope. DOFD doesnt apply to student loans. The SOL goes by your default date. So 11/08 is when it should fall off. The regs from the HEA are posted at the top of this forum.
Thanks in advance!

thanks...I guess I am reading too much...everytime I think I understand, I don't. I don't mean to sound "dumb"...I've read the HEA and many other posts, many, many times...maybe that's the problem, I am reading too much???
Is a 120 day late and a 180 day late are considered "default" even if the word "default" or claim filed with government is not on the CR? I am trying to figure out where the 270 days comes in play in defaults.
Consolidation of SL's with late payments that don't go into default status does not restart the 7 years, correct? Or, is it every loan, whether it is "late" or has already entered default status, will remain on CR for 7 years from date claim is paid in full?
These two posts are confusing the heck out of me...

Again, sorry if I am totally missing the boat here I am just wanting to make sure I understand.
Thanks in advance!
