Federal Government will be reviewing foreclosures initiated by several banks, including Chase, Citi Bank, Wells Fargo, HSBC and a few others, from January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010. Between 11/01/2011 and 12/31/2011, homeowners, whose homes were in a foreclosure process during 2009 and 2010, will receive letter and forms from the Federal Government. If you would like the Federal Government to review your loan you will have to fill out the required paperwork and mail it in by April of 2012. Even if you house was sold or auctioned off, or your loan settled, you will still qualify for this program!

So, to answer the question of whether or not the student loans are dischargeable, I will simply say "They are not." Although, that is not completely accurate, it answers correctly the 99% of the questions. However, there is that 1% percent of cases, where student loans might become dischargeable and believe me, you do not want to be in that 1%. To discharge student loans in bankruptcy, one has to show that he or she is suffering such great financial hardship, which will not change at any foreseen time.
