What is Edfinancial's tax ID (EIN) number?

Edfinancial utilizes more than one tax ID (EIN) number based on the owner of your loan(s). After tax information becomes available, you may view the tax ID number that applies to your specific loan(s) by reviewing your 1098-E tax form.

Why did I receive an IRS Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt?

You will receive an IRS Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt, if $600 or more in loan debt for which you were responsible was discharged (cancelled or forgiven). Edfinancial Services is required to report this discharged amount to the IRS because the cancellation of debt may be considered income for tax purposes.
