Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Information and Employment Verification Instructions for TFA Alumni & Staff

The application deadline for the limited PSLF waiver was 10/31/22. Alumni are encouraged to use the federal PSLF Help Tool to better understand their options.

If you served in the corps or have ever worked as a member of our staff, please review the instructions on our PSLF one-pager how to obtain employment certification for PSLF. We also provide links to a recent PSLF webinar hosted by TFA alum Kat Welbeck, Houston ’09 and the Student Borrower Protection Center.

Teach For America is a qualifying employer for PSLF. Our EIN is 13-3541913. Please note that current and former corps members are not considered employees of Teach For America, and should instead contact their placement school for employment verification. Current and former TFA staff members may email generalist@teachforamerica.org with a scanned copy of the employment verification form.
