Find out how to make extra repayments.
You can make extra repayments whenever you want, even if you're earning under the repayment threshold.
You can make the extra repayments directly to us or ask your employer to make extra deductions from your salary or wages. If these add up to $500 or more during a tax year, you may qualify for a 10% voluntary repayment bonus. You can monitor your extra repayments through your online services account.

Making extra repayments through your salary or wages
You can ask your employer to make extra student loan repayments through your salary or wages. Just let them know how much extra you want to pay and your employer will send us your extra repayments along with your standard student loan deductions each month.
Extra repayments can be made at any time, even if you’re earning under the pay period repayment threshold. If you change your mind or want to change the amount of your extra repayment, just let your employer know.
