Student Loan repayment - help

ysun062

Currently I am paying about $440 of student loan repayment easy month.
Is there a way to reduce this amount ? do we have any control over how much we want to pay (I am talking about the minimum payment) ? anyone have similar experience ?

no. it is a fixed amount based on your salary.

if you earn X dollars a year, then you have to pay minimum (x-y)*10% every year.

Y (threshold) is around 18K i think? you need to check ird/ study link website.

if you pay 440 a month, means over 5000 a year, then your salary is over 68K...........

ok, thanks guy for the info, if thats the case, there is nothing i could do.....
let it pay,, let it pay, still a long way from paying it off... another 8 years perhaps...

now to think about it, i shouldnt really be taking this much of loan in the first place, should have done more cash making work during uni to pay my fees and living expenses,, oh well,, its history now, have to pay what i've spent....

but it is interest free so do not worry too much.

you can pay by cheque directly to them or ask a weekly or monthly autopayment form from studylink instead of deducting from your salary

正如楼上说的，反正不算利息，长命债长命还呗。
