I have attached some info on the College Cost Reduction and Access Act
of 2007.  There is also some good information on the Equal Justice Works
website.  In a nutshell, it forgives your loans after making 120 monthly
payments.  But your loans have to be through federal direct loans (which
you can do by consolidating) and you have to make payments through
Income Based or Income Contingent Payments (not extended year payments,
which is the standard method of payment, so you would have to call the
Dept of Ed to change it).
