My husband and I both have Student Loans through OSAP.  I am in Repayment Assistance for another month.  My husband has been trying to get his application approved since August 2013.
We have been in touch with the NSLS and faxed income statements, applications, and a tonne of other paperwork every time they asked for it.
On March 10 we were told that the application was going to be manually put through and that the application would go through in 2-3 days.  8 days later it was approved for Affordable Payments.  We were then told that we owe $1970 by April 17. As the payments would start from August.
Needless to say we won't be able to pay that.
We spoke to a Case Worker and were told they could extend it to May 1.

My issue is, they sat on this application for 8 months.  They admitted that it sat idle and that nothing had been done to it for that amount of time.

Is there anything that we can do??

Thanks.

-Amy
