Annual Updates to the Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR) Plan Formula for 2022-William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program, 50615-50619 [2022-17696]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 17, 2022 / Notices borrower’s income and family size. The other income-driven repayment plans are the Income-Based Repayment (IBR) plan, the Pay As You Earn Repayment (PAYE) plan, and the Revised Pay As You Earn Repayment (REPAYE) plan. The IBR, PAYE, and REPAYE plans generally result in lower payment amounts than the ICR plan. A Direct Loan borrower who repays under the ICR plan pays the lesser of: (1) the monthly amount that would be required over a 12-year repayment period with fixed payments, multiplied by an income percentage factor; or (2) 20 percent of their discretionary income. We adjust the income percentage factors annually to reflect changes in inflation and announce the adjusted factors in the Federal Register, as required by 34 CFR 685.209(b)(1)(ii)(A). We use the adjusted income percentage factors to calculate a borrower’s monthly ICR payment amount when the borrower initially applies for the ICR plan or when the borrower submits annual income documentation, as required under the ICR plan. This notice contains the adjusted income percentage factors for 2022, examples of how the monthly ICR payment amount is calculated, and charts showing sample repayment amounts based on the adjusted ICR plan formula. This information is included in the following three attachments: • Attachment 1—Income Percentage Factors for 2022 • Attachment 2—Examples of the Calculations of Monthly Repayment Amounts • Attachment 3—Charts Showing Sample Repayment Amounts for Single and Married Borrowers In Attachment 1, to reflect changes in inflation, we updated the income percentage factors that were published in the Federal Register on April 14, 2021 (86 FR 19607). Specifically, we have revised the table of income percentage factors by changing the dollar amounts of the incomes shown by a percentage equal to the estimated percentage change between the not- DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Annual Updates to the IncomeContingent Repayment (ICR) Plan Formula for 2022—William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program Federal Student Aid, Department of Education. ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: The Secretary announces the annual updates to the ICR plan formula for 2022 to give notice to borrowers and the public regarding how monthly ICR payment amounts will be calculated for the 2022–2023 year under the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program, Assistance Listing Number 84.063. DATES: The adjustments to the income percentage factors for the ICR plan formula contained in this notice are applicable from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023, for any borrower who enters the ICR plan or has a monthly payment amount under the ICR plan recalculated during that period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Direct Loan Program, borrowers may choose to repay their non-defaulted Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, Direct PLUS Loans made to graduate or professional students, and Direct Consolidation Loans under the ICR plan. The ICR plan bases the borrower’s monthly payment amount on the borrower’s Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), family size, loan amount, and the interest rate applicable to each of the borrower’s loans. ICR is one of several ‘‘income-driven’’ repayment plans that provide a monthly payment amount based on the SUMMARY: 50615 seasonally-adjusted Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers for December 2021 and December 2022. The income percentage factors reflected in Attachment 1 may cause a borrower’s payments to be lower than they were in prior years, even if the borrower’s income is the same as in the prior year. The revised repayment amount more accurately reflects the impact of inflation on the borrower’s current ability to repay.

Attachment 2—Examples of the Calculations of Monthly Repayment Amounts General notes about the examples in this attachment: • We have a calculator that borrowers can use to estimate what their payment amounts would be under the ICR plan. The calculator is called the ‘‘Loan Simulator’’ and is available at studentaid.gov/loan-simulator. Based on information entered into the calculator by the borrower (for example, income, family size, and tax filing status), this calculator provides a detailed, individualized assessment of a borrower’s loans and repayment plan options, including the ICR plan. • The interest rates used in the examples are for illustration only. The actual interest rates on an individual borrower’s Direct Loans depend on the loan type and when the loan was first disbursed. • The Poverty Guideline amounts used in the examples are from the 2022 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Poverty Guidelines for the 48 contiguous States and the District of Columbia. Different Poverty Guidelines apply to residents of Alaska and Hawaii. The Poverty Guidelines for 2022 were published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2022 (87 FR 3315). • All of the examples use an income percentage factor corresponding to an adjusted gross income (AGI) in the table in Attachment 1. If an AGI is not listed in the income percentage factors table in Attachment 1, the applicable income percentage can be calculated by following the instructions under the ‘‘Interpolation’’ heading later in this attachment. • Married borrowers may repay their Direct Loans jointly under the ICR plan. If a married couple elects this option, we determine a joint ICR payment amount based on the combined outstanding balances of each borrower’s Direct Loans and the combined AGIs of both borrowers. We then prorate the joint payment amount for each borrower based on the proportion of that borrower’s debt to the total outstanding VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:22 Aug 16, 2022 Jkt 256001 balance. We bill each borrower separately. • For example, if a married couple, John and Briana, has a total outstanding Direct Loan debt of $60,000, of which $40,000 belongs to John and $20,000 to Briana, we would apportion 67 percent of the monthly ICR payment to John and the remaining 33 percent to Briana. To take advantage of a joint ICR payment, married couples need not file taxes jointly; they may file separately and subsequently provide the other spouse’s tax information to the borrower’s Federal loan servicer. Calculating the Monthly Payment Amount Using a Standard Amortization and a 12-Year Repayment Period The formula to amortize a loan with a standard schedule (in which each payment is the same over the course of the repayment period) is as follows: M = P × < (I ÷ 12) ÷ [1 ¥ {1 + (I ÷ 12)} ∧ ¥N] > In the formula— • M is the monthly payment amount; • P is the outstanding principal balance of the loan at the time the loan entered repayment; • I is the annual interest rate on the loan, expressed as a decimal (for example, for a loan with an interest rate of 6 percent, 0.06); and • N is the total number of months in the repayment period (for example, for a loan with a 12-year repayment period, 144 months). For example, assume that Billy has a $10,000 Direct Unsubsidized Loan with an interest rate of 6 percent. Step 1: To solve for M, first simplify the numerator of the fraction by which we multiply P, the outstanding principal balance. To do this divide I (the interest rate expressed as a decimal) by 12. In this example, Billy’s interest rate is 6 percent. As a decimal, 6 percent is 0.06. • 0.06 ÷ 12 = 0.005 Step 2: Next, simplify the denominator of the fraction by which we multiply P. To do this divide I (the interest rate expressed as a decimal) by 12. Then, add one. Next, raise the sum of the two figures to the negative power that corresponds to the length of the PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 111.80 123.50 141.20 150.00 200.00 AGI % Factor 124,811 168,784 236,052 385,726 ........................ 125.00 140.60 150.00 200.00 ........................ repayment period in months. In this example, because we are amortizing a loan to calculate the monthly payment amount under the ICR plan, the applicable figure is 12 years, which is 144 months. Finally, subtract the result from one. • 0.06 ÷ 12 = 0.005 • 1 + 0.005 = 1.005 • 1.005 ∧ ¥144 = 0.48762628 • 1¥0.48762628 = 0.51237372 Step 3: Next, resolve the fraction by dividing the result from Step 1 by the result from Step 2. • 0.005 ÷ 0.51237372 = 0.0097585 Step 4: Finally, solve for M, the monthly payment amount, by multiplying the outstanding principal balance of the loan by the result of Step 3. • $10,000 × 0.0097585 = $97.59 The remainder of the examples in this attachment will only show the results of the formula. In each of the examples, the Direct Loan amounts represent the outstanding principal balance at the time the loans entered repayment. Example 1. Kesha is single with no dependents and has $15,000 in Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. The interest rate on Kesha’s loans is 6 percent, and she has an AGI of $33,072. Step 1: Determine the total monthly payment amount based on what Kesha would pay over 12 years using standard amortization. To do this, use the formula that precedes Example 1. In this example, the monthly payment amount would be $146.38. Step 2: Multiply the result of Step 1 by the income percentage factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 to this notice) that corresponds to Kesha’s AGI. In this example, an AGI of $33,072 corresponds to an income percentage factor of 71.89 percent. • 0.7189 × $146.38 = $105.23 Step 3: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 percent of Kesha’s discretionary income (discretionary income is AGI minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a borrower’s family size and State of residence). To do this, subtract the HHS E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM 17AUN1 JSPEARS on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 17, 2022 / Notices Poverty Guideline amount for a family of one from Kesha’s AGI, multiply the result by 20 percent, and then divide by 12: • $33,071 ¥ $13,590 = $19,481 • $19,481 × 0.20 = $3,896.20 • $3,896.20 ÷ 12 = $324.68 Step 4: Compare the amount from Step 2 with the amount from Step 3. In this example, Kesha would pay the amount calculated under Step 2 ($105.23), since this is the lesser of the two payment amounts. Note: In this example, Kesha would have a lower payment under the ICR plan than under the other incomedriven repayment plans. Specifically, Kesha’s monthly payment would be $105.73 under the PAYE and REPAYE plans, and $158.59 under the IBR plan. Example 2. Paul is married to Jesse and they have no dependents. They file their Federal income tax return jointly. Paul has a Direct Loan balance of $10,000, and Jesse has a Direct Loan balance of $15,000. Each of their Direct Loans has an interest rate of 6 percent. Paul and Jesse have a combined AGI of $93,405 and are repaying their loans jointly under the ICR plan (for general information regarding joint ICR payments for married couples, see the fifth and sixth bullets under the heading ‘‘General notes about the examples in this attachment’’). Step 1: Add Paul’s and Jesse’s Direct Loan balances to determine their combined aggregate loan balance: • $10,000 + $15,000 = $25,000 Step 2: Determine the combined monthly payment amount for Paul and Jesse based on what both borrowers would pay over 12 years using standard amortization. To do this, use the formula that precedes Example 1. In this example, their combined monthly payment amount would be $243.96. Step 3: Multiply the result of Step 2 by the income percentage factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 to this notice) that corresponds to Paul and Jesse’s combined AGI. In this example, the combined AGI of $93,405 corresponds to an income percentage factor of 109.40 percent. • 1.094 × $243.96 = $266.90 Step 4: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 percent of Paul and Jesse’s combined discretionary income (discretionary income is AGI minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a borrower’s family size and State of residence). To do this, subtract the Poverty Guideline amount for a family of two from the combined AGI, multiply the result by 20 percent, and then divide by 12: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:22 Aug 16, 2022 Jkt 256001 • $93,405—$18,310 = $75,095 • $75,095 × 0.20 = $15,019 • $15,019 ÷ 12 = $1,251.58 Step 5: Compare the amount from Step 3 with the amount from Step 4. Paul and Jesse would jointly pay the amount calculated under Step 3 ($266.90), since this is the lesser of the two amounts. Note: For Paul and Jesse, the ICR plan provides the lowest monthly payment of any income-driven repayment plan available. Paul and Jesse would not be eligible for the IBR or PAYE plans, and they would have a combined monthly payment under the REPAYE plan of $549.50. Step 6: Because Paul and Jesse are jointly repaying their Direct Loans under the ICR plan, the monthly payment amount calculated under Step 5 applies to Paul’s and Jesse’s combined loans. To determine the amount for which each borrower will be responsible, prorate the amount calculated under Step 4 by each spouse’s share of the combined Direct Loan debt. Paul has a Direct Loan debt of $10,000 and Jesse has a Direct Loan debt of $15,000. For Paul, the monthly payment amount will be: • $10,000 ÷ ($10,000 + $15,000) = 40 percent • 0.40 × $266.90 = $106.76 For Jesse, the monthly payment amount will be: • $15,000 ÷ ($10,000 + $15,000) = 60 percent • 0.60 × $266.90 = $160.14 Example 3. Santiago is single with no dependents and has a combined balance of $60,000 in Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. Each of Santiago’s loans has an interest rate of 6 percent, and Santiago’s AGI is $39,350. Step 1: Determine the total monthly payment amount based on what Santiago would pay over 12 years using standard amortization. To do this, use the formula that precedes Example 1. In this example, the monthly payment amount would be $585.51. Step 2: Multiply the result of Step 1 by the income percentage factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 to this notice) that corresponds to Santiago’s AGI. In this example, an AGI of $39,350 corresponds to an income percentage factor of 80.33 percent. • 0.8033 × $585.51 = $470.34 Step 3: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 percent of Santiago’s discretionary income (discretionary income is AGI minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a borrower’s family size and State of PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 50617 residence). To do this, subtract the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a family of one from Santiago’s AGI, multiply the result by 20 percent, and then divide by 12: • $39,351 ¥ $13,590 = $25,761 • $25,761 × 0.20 = $5,152.20 • $5,152.20 ÷ 12 = $429.35 Step 4: Compare the amount from Step 2 with the amount from Step 3. In this example, Santiago would pay the amount calculated under Step 3 ($429.35), since this is the lesser of the two amounts. Note: Santiago would have a lower payment under each of the other income-driven plans. Specifically, Santiago’s payment would be $158.04 under the PAYE and REPAYE plans and $237.06 under the IBR plan. Interpolation. If an AGI is not included on the income percentage factor table, calculate the income percentage factor through linear interpolation. For example, assume that Jocelyn is single with an AGI of $50,000. Step 1: Find the closest AGI listed that is less than Jocelyn’s AGI of $50,000 ($49,425) and the closest AGI listed that is greater than Jocelyn’s AGI of $50,000 ($61,988). Step 2: Subtract the lower amount from the higher amount (for this discussion we will call the result the ‘‘income interval’’): • $61,988 ¥ $49,425 = $12,563 Step 3: Determine the difference between the two income percentage factors that correspond to the AGIs used in Step 2 (for this discussion, we will call the result the ‘‘income percentage factor interval’’): • 100.00 percent ¥ 88.77 percent = 11.23 percent Step 4: Subtract from Jocelyn’s AGI the closest AGI shown on the chart that is less than Jocelyn’s AGI of $50,000: • $50,000 ¥ $49,425 = $575 Step 5: Divide the result of Step 4 by the income interval determined in Step 2: • $575 ÷ $12,563 = 4.57 percent Step 6: Multiply the result of Step 5 by the income percentage factor interval that was calculated in Step 3: • 11.23 percent × 4.57 percent = 0.51 percent Step 7: Add the result of Step 6 to the lower of the two income percentage factors used in Step 3 to calculate the income percentage factor interval for an AGI of $50,000: • 0.51 percent + 88.77 percent = 89.28 percent (rounded to the nearest hundredth) The result is the income percentage factor that we will use to calculate E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM 17AUN1 50618 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 17, 2022 / Notices Jocelyn’s monthly repayment amount under the ICR plan. Attachment 3—Charts Showing Sample Income-Driven Repayment Amounts for Single and Married Borrowers Below are two charts that provide first-year payment amount estimates for a variety of loan debt sizes and AGIs under each of the income-driven repayment plans and the 10-Year Standard Repayment Plan. The first chart is for single borrowers who have a family size of one. The second chart is for a borrower who is married or a head of household and who has a family size of three. The calculations in Attachment 3 assume that the loan debt has an interest rate of 6 percent. For married borrowers, the calculations assume that the borrower files a joint Federal income tax return and that the borrower’s spouse does not have Federal student loans. A field with a ‘‘-″ character indicates that the borrower in the example would not be eligible to enter the applicable income-driven repayment plan based on the borrower’s AGI, loan debt, and family size.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION


Annual Updates to the Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR) Plan 
Formula for 2022--William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program

AGENCY: Federal Student Aid, Department of Education.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Secretary announces the annual updates to the ICR plan 
formula for 2022 to give notice to borrowers and the public regarding 
how monthly ICR payment amounts will be calculated for the 2022-2023 
year under the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) 
Program, Assistance Listing Number 84.063.

DATES: The adjustments to the income percentage factors for the ICR 
plan formula contained in this notice are applicable from July 1, 2022, 
to June 30, 2023, for any borrower who enters the ICR plan or has a 
monthly payment amount under the ICR plan recalculated during that 
period.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Travis Sturlaugson, U.S. Department of 
Education, 830 First Street NE, Room 113H3, Washington, DC 20202. 
Telephone: (202) 377-4174. Email: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Direct Loan Program, borrowers may 
choose to repay their non-defaulted Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct 
Unsubsidized Loans, Direct PLUS Loans made to graduate or professional 
students, and Direct Consolidation Loans under the ICR plan. The ICR 
plan bases the borrower's monthly payment amount on the borrower's 
Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), family size, loan amount, and the interest 
rate applicable to each of the borrower's loans.
    ICR is one of several ``income-driven'' repayment plans that 
provide a monthly payment amount based on the borrower's income and 
family size. The other income-driven repayment plans are the Income-
Based Repayment (IBR) plan, the Pay As You Earn Repayment (PAYE) plan, 
and the Revised Pay As You Earn Repayment (REPAYE) plan. The IBR, PAYE, 
and REPAYE plans generally result in lower payment amounts than the ICR 
plan.
    A Direct Loan borrower who repays under the ICR plan pays the 
lesser of: (1) the monthly amount that would be required over a 12-year 
repayment period with fixed payments, multiplied by an income 
percentage factor; or (2) 20 percent of their discretionary income.
    We adjust the income percentage factors annually to reflect changes 
in inflation and announce the adjusted factors in the Federal Register, 
as required by 34 CFR 685.209(b)(1)(ii)(A). We use the adjusted income 
percentage factors to calculate a borrower's monthly ICR payment amount 
when the borrower initially applies for the ICR plan or when the 
borrower submits annual income documentation, as required under the ICR 
plan. This notice contains the adjusted income percentage factors for 
2022, examples of how the monthly ICR payment amount is calculated, and 
charts showing sample repayment amounts based on the adjusted ICR plan 
formula. This information is included in the following three 
attachments:

 Attachment 1--Income Percentage Factors for 2022
 Attachment 2--Examples of the Calculations of Monthly 
Repayment Amounts
 Attachment 3--Charts Showing Sample Repayment Amounts for 
Single and Married Borrowers

    In Attachment 1, to reflect changes in inflation, we updated the 
income percentage factors that were published in the Federal Register 
on April 14, 2021 (86 FR 19607). Specifically, we have revised the 
table of income percentage factors by changing the dollar amounts of 
the incomes shown by a percentage equal to the estimated percentage 
change between the not-seasonally-adjusted Consumer Price Index for all 
urban consumers for December 2021 and December 2022.
    The income percentage factors reflected in Attachment 1 may cause a 
borrower's payments to be lower than they were in prior years, even if 
the borrower's income is the same as in the prior year. The revised 
repayment amount more accurately reflects the impact of inflation on 
the borrower's current ability to repay.

Attachment 2--Examples of the Calculations of Monthly Repayment Amounts

    General notes about the examples in this attachment:
     We have a calculator that borrowers can use to estimate 
what their payment amounts would be under the ICR plan. The calculator 
is called the ``Loan Simulator'' and is available at studentaid.gov/loan-simulator. Based on information entered into the calculator by the 
borrower (for example, income, family size, and tax filing status), 
this calculator provides a detailed, individualized assessment of a 
borrower's loans and repayment plan options, including the ICR plan.
     The interest rates used in the examples are for 
illustration only. The actual interest rates on an individual 
borrower's Direct Loans depend on the loan type and when the loan was 
first disbursed.
     The Poverty Guideline amounts used in the examples are 
from the 2022 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) 
Poverty Guidelines for the 48 contiguous States and the District of 
Columbia. Different Poverty Guidelines apply to residents of Alaska and 
Hawaii. The Poverty Guidelines for 2022 were published in the Federal 
Register on January 21, 2022 (87 FR 3315).
     All of the examples use an income percentage factor 
corresponding to an adjusted gross income (AGI) in the table in 
Attachment 1. If an AGI is not listed in the income percentage factors 
table in Attachment 1, the applicable income percentage can be 
calculated by following the instructions under the ``Interpolation'' 
heading later in this attachment.
     Married borrowers may repay their Direct Loans jointly 
under the ICR plan. If a married couple elects this option, we 
determine a joint ICR payment amount based on the combined outstanding 
balances of each borrower's Direct Loans and the combined AGIs of both 
borrowers. We then prorate the joint payment amount for each borrower 
based on the proportion of that borrower's debt to the total 
outstanding balance. We bill each borrower separately.
     For example, if a married couple, John and Briana, has a 
total outstanding Direct Loan debt of $60,000, of which $40,000 belongs 
to John and $20,000 to Briana, we would apportion 67 percent of the 
monthly ICR payment to John and the remaining 33 percent to Briana. To 
take advantage of a joint ICR payment, married couples need not file 
taxes jointly; they may file separately and subsequently provide the 
other spouse's tax information to the borrower's Federal loan servicer.

Calculating the Monthly Payment Amount Using a Standard Amortization 
and a 12-Year Repayment Period

    The formula to amortize a loan with a standard schedule (in which 
each payment is the same over the course of the repayment period) is as 
follows:

M = P x < (I / 12) / [1 - {1 + (I / 12){time}  [supcaret] -N] >
In the formula--
 M is the monthly payment amount;
 P is the outstanding principal balance of the loan at the 
time the loan entered repayment;
 I is the annual interest rate on the loan, expressed as a 
decimal (for example, for a loan with an interest rate of 6 percent, 
0.06); and
 N is the total number of months in the repayment period 
(for example, for a loan with a 12-year repayment period, 144 
months).

    For example, assume that Billy has a $10,000 Direct Unsubsidized 
Loan with an interest rate of 6 percent.
    Step 1: To solve for M, first simplify the numerator of the 
fraction by which we multiply P, the outstanding principal balance. To 
do this divide I (the interest rate expressed as a decimal) by 12. In 
this example, Billy's interest rate is 6 percent. As a decimal, 6 
percent is 0.06.

 0.06 / 12 = 0.005

    Step 2: Next, simplify the denominator of the fraction by which we 
multiply P. To do this divide I (the interest rate expressed as a 
decimal) by 12. Then, add one. Next, raise the sum of the two figures 
to the negative power that corresponds to the length of the repayment 
period in months. In this example, because we are amortizing a loan to 
calculate the monthly payment amount under the ICR plan, the applicable 
figure is 12 years, which is 144 months. Finally, subtract the result 
from one.

 0.06 / 12 = 0.005
 1 + 0.005 = 1.005
 1.005 [supcaret] -144 = 0.48762628
 1-0.48762628 = 0.51237372

    Step 3: Next, resolve the fraction by dividing the result from Step 
1 by the result from Step 2.

 0.005 / 0.51237372 = 0.0097585

    Step 4: Finally, solve for M, the monthly payment amount, by 
multiplying the outstanding principal balance of the loan by the result 
of Step 3.

 $10,000 x 0.0097585 = $97.59

    The remainder of the examples in this attachment will only show the 
results of the formula. In each of the examples, the Direct Loan 
amounts represent the outstanding principal balance at the time the 
loans entered repayment.
    Example 1. Kesha is single with no dependents and has $15,000 in 
Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. The interest rate on Kesha's 
loans is 6 percent, and she has an AGI of $33,072.
    Step 1: Determine the total monthly payment amount based on what 
Kesha would pay over 12 years using standard amortization. To do this, 
use the formula that precedes Example 1. In this example, the monthly 
payment amount would be $146.38.
    Step 2: Multiply the result of Step 1 by the income percentage 
factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 
to this notice) that corresponds to Kesha's AGI. In this example, an 
AGI of $33,072 corresponds to an income percentage factor of 71.89 
percent.

 0.7189 x $146.38 = $105.23

    Step 3: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 
percent of Kesha's discretionary income (discretionary income is AGI 
minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a borrower's family size and 
State of residence). To do this, subtract the HHS

[[Page 50617]]

Poverty Guideline amount for a family of one from Kesha's AGI, multiply 
the result by 20 percent, and then divide by 12:

 $33,071 - $13,590 = $19,481
 $19,481 x 0.20 = $3,896.20
 $3,896.20 / 12 = $324.68

    Step 4: Compare the amount from Step 2 with the amount from Step 3. 
In this example, Kesha would pay the amount calculated under Step 2 
($105.23), since this is the lesser of the two payment amounts.
    Note: In this example, Kesha would have a lower payment under the 
ICR plan than under the other income-driven repayment plans. 
Specifically, Kesha's monthly payment would be $105.73 under the PAYE 
and REPAYE plans, and $158.59 under the IBR plan.
    Example 2. Paul is married to Jesse and they have no dependents. 
They file their Federal income tax return jointly. Paul has a Direct 
Loan balance of $10,000, and Jesse has a Direct Loan balance of 
$15,000. Each of their Direct Loans has an interest rate of 6 percent.
    Paul and Jesse have a combined AGI of $93,405 and are repaying 
their loans jointly under the ICR plan (for general information 
regarding joint ICR payments for married couples, see the fifth and 
sixth bullets under the heading ``General notes about the examples in 
this attachment'').
    Step 1: Add Paul's and Jesse's Direct Loan balances to determine 
their combined aggregate loan balance:

 $10,000 + $15,000 = $25,000

    Step 2: Determine the combined monthly payment amount for Paul and 
Jesse based on what both borrowers would pay over 12 years using 
standard amortization. To do this, use the formula that precedes 
Example 1. In this example, their combined monthly payment amount would 
be $243.96.
    Step 3: Multiply the result of Step 2 by the income percentage 
factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 
to this notice) that corresponds to Paul and Jesse's combined AGI. In 
this example, the combined AGI of $93,405 corresponds to an income 
percentage factor of 109.40 percent.

 1.094 x $243.96 = $266.90

    Step 4: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 
percent of Paul and Jesse's combined discretionary income 
(discretionary income is AGI minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for 
a borrower's family size and State of residence). To do this, subtract 
the Poverty Guideline amount for a family of two from the combined AGI, 
multiply the result by 20 percent, and then divide by 12:

 $93,405--$18,310 = $75,095
 $75,095 x 0.20 = $15,019
 $15,019 / 12 = $1,251.58

    Step 5: Compare the amount from Step 3 with the amount from Step 4. 
Paul and Jesse would jointly pay the amount calculated under Step 3 
($266.90), since this is the lesser of the two amounts.
    Note: For Paul and Jesse, the ICR plan provides the lowest monthly 
payment of any income-driven repayment plan available. Paul and Jesse 
would not be eligible for the IBR or PAYE plans, and they would have a 
combined monthly payment under the REPAYE plan of $549.50.
    Step 6: Because Paul and Jesse are jointly repaying their Direct 
Loans under the ICR plan, the monthly payment amount calculated under 
Step 5 applies to Paul's and Jesse's combined loans. To determine the 
amount for which each borrower will be responsible, prorate the amount 
calculated under Step 4 by each spouse's share of the combined Direct 
Loan debt. Paul has a Direct Loan debt of $10,000 and Jesse has a 
Direct Loan debt of $15,000. For Paul, the monthly payment amount will 
be:

 $10,000 / ($10,000 + $15,000) = 40 percent

 0.40 x $266.90 = $106.76

    For Jesse, the monthly payment amount will be:

 $15,000 / ($10,000 + $15,000) = 60 percent
 0.60 x $266.90 = $160.14

    Example 3. Santiago is single with no dependents and has a combined 
balance of $60,000 in Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. Each of 
Santiago's loans has an interest rate of 6 percent, and Santiago's AGI 
is $39,350.
    Step 1: Determine the total monthly payment amount based on what 
Santiago would pay over 12 years using standard amortization. To do 
this, use the formula that precedes Example 1. In this example, the 
monthly payment amount would be $585.51.
    Step 2: Multiply the result of Step 1 by the income percentage 
factor shown in the income percentage factors table (see Attachment 1 
to this notice) that corresponds to Santiago's AGI. In this example, an 
AGI of $39,350 corresponds to an income percentage factor of 80.33 
percent.

 0.8033 x $585.51 = $470.34

    Step 3: Now, determine the monthly payment amount equal to 20 
percent of Santiago's discretionary income (discretionary income is AGI 
minus the HHS Poverty Guideline amount for a borrower's family size and 
State of residence). To do this, subtract the HHS Poverty Guideline 
amount for a family of one from Santiago's AGI, multiply the result by 
20 percent, and then divide by 12:

 $39,351 - $13,590 = $25,761
 $25,761 x 0.20 = $5,152.20
 $5,152.20 / 12 = $429.35

    Step 4: Compare the amount from Step 2 with the amount from Step 3. 
In this example, Santiago would pay the amount calculated under Step 3 
($429.35), since this is the lesser of the two amounts.
    Note: Santiago would have a lower payment under each of the other 
income-driven plans. Specifically, Santiago's payment would be $158.04 
under the PAYE and REPAYE plans and $237.06 under the IBR plan.
    Interpolation. If an AGI is not included on the income percentage 
factor table, calculate the income percentage factor through linear 
interpolation. For example, assume that Jocelyn is single with an AGI 
of $50,000.
    Step 1: Find the closest AGI listed that is less than Jocelyn's AGI 
of $50,000 ($49,425) and the closest AGI listed that is greater than 
Jocelyn's AGI of $50,000 ($61,988).
    Step 2: Subtract the lower amount from the higher amount (for this 
discussion we will call the result the ``income interval''):

 $61,988 - $49,425 = $12,563

    Step 3: Determine the difference between the two income percentage 
factors that correspond to the AGIs used in Step 2 (for this 
discussion, we will call the result the ``income percentage factor 
interval''):

 100.00 percent - 88.77 percent = 11.23 percent

    Step 4: Subtract from Jocelyn's AGI the closest AGI shown on the 
chart that is less than Jocelyn's AGI of $50,000:

 $50,000 - $49,425 = $575

    Step 5: Divide the result of Step 4 by the income interval 
determined in Step 2:

 $575 / $12,563 = 4.57 percent

    Step 6: Multiply the result of Step 5 by the income percentage 
factor interval that was calculated in Step 3:

 11.23 percent x 4.57 percent = 0.51 percent

    Step 7: Add the result of Step 6 to the lower of the two income 
percentage factors used in Step 3 to calculate the income percentage 
factor interval for an AGI of $50,000:

 0.51 percent + 88.77 percent = 89.28 percent (rounded to the 
nearest hundredth)

    The result is the income percentage factor that we will use to 
calculate

Attachment 3--Charts Showing Sample Income-Driven Repayment Amounts for 
Single and Married Borrowers

    Below are two charts that provide first-year payment amount 
estimates for a variety of loan debt sizes and AGIs under each of the 
income-driven repayment plans and the 10-Year Standard Repayment Plan. 
The first chart is for single borrowers who have a family size of one. 
The second chart is for a borrower who is married or a head of 
household and who has a family size of three. The calculations in 
Attachment 3 assume that the loan debt has an interest rate of 6 
percent. For married borrowers, the calculations assume that the 
borrower files a joint Federal income tax return and that the 
borrower's spouse does not have Federal student loans. A field with a 
``-'' character indicates that the borrower in the example would not be 
eligible to enter the applicable income-driven repayment plan based on 
the borrower's AGI, loan debt, and family size.
