MEMORANDUM FOR BUREAU HUMAN RESOURCES OFFICERS

FROM:            Debra M. Tomchek
                         Director, Human Resources

SUBJECT:      Student Loan Change

Public Law 108-123, the Federal Employee Student Loan Assistance Act, increased the annual and aggregate limits on student loan repayments by Federal agencies. The annual amount was increased from $6,000 to $10,000 and the aggregate limit was raised from $40,000 to $60,000.

The Department’s Human Resources Order, DOJ 1200.1, Chapter 2-12, Student Loan Repayment, and the Student Loan Repayment Fact Sheet will be updated to reflect this change.

Questions concerning this matter should be directed to Jamie Higgins, of my staff’s Workforce Effectiveness Group. She may be reached at (202) 514-5781.
