The federal student loan payment pause that has been in place since the beginning days of the COVID-19 pandemic is ending. The Department of Education announced that interest will resume and statements will start going out in September 2023, with payments coming due in October 2023.
Because of this change, many people will need to make budget adjustments. As an Alcoa Tenn FCU member, you have access to free resources and counseling from our partners at Greenpath Financial Wellness to help you make a plan.
