Is this even possible?

So I had a perkins student loan defaulted on in 2000. I never made a payment or consolidated this student loan because I forgot all about it. now Fast forward to 2013 the dept of ed picks it up and I pay it off in full. On my credit report the dofd says 2009, I contacted the cra & dept of ed to tell them the original delinquency date was in 2000 not 2009. They both refuse to act on my dispute. Now I just received my letter from my school staying everything I said is true. So my question is can gov serviced loans have the ability to be re-agged?

The DOE subrogated the loan which allows them to report for another 7 years. Common occurance with perkins and FFELP loans.

Yes, they can if the loan was subrograted to the DOE.

[Mrfreshnewstart]

What does subrogated to the doe mean?

[hodap2001]

It means assigned to the United States Department of Education where they will further pursue you and refer your defaulted loan to a federal attorney to file a federal lawsuit against you for the recovery of the student loan balance including all fees, court, and attorney fees.
