A law was passed in 1998 that has made it even more difficult to discharge a student loan in bankruptcy. It is incredibly difficult to discharge a loan in this way, and the only approach is to convince a court that repaying the loan would create a severe hardship for you. You would have a better chance of cancelling the loans or postponing payments through forebearance or deferrment.

The bankruptcy will show up on any credit reports, and you may subsequently be unable to et additional loans. I filed for bankrupcy in 1998.

If you were going to lose your income tax refund to the student loan people, then even after bankruptcy you still will.
