1 For PAYE, you must be a new borrower as of October 1, 2007, and must have received at least one Federal Direct Loan disbursed after October 1, 2011.
2 For IBR (2014), you must be a new borrower as of July 1, 2014.
3 Federal Non-Direct Loans can be eligible for IDR if they are consolidated into a Federal Direct Consolidation loan.  PAYE and IBR (2014) eligibility still depend on meeting the new borrower requirements.
