Product: Student loan

I took out multiple loans from XXXX. I began repaying in XXXX. During XXXX I was employed by qualifying employers. I was placed in forbearance for three months ( XXXX ) by the federal government ( FedLoans ). Initially I was placed in forbearance because my income changed and I was forced to change payment plans. A government employee made an error and extended this forbearance until XXXX ; this is documented in multiple notes I kept of phone calls. Despite being in forbearance, I did make payments in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and have receipts of these payments, attached below. I submitted a XXXX  form in XX/XX/XXXX, and again in XX/XX/XXXX. I received credit 118 months of eligibility, but no determination has been made for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX despite repeated requests and submission of receipts to both XXXX and Student Aid. A copy of this letter and timeline were sent to XXXX and Student Aid on multiple dates ( see below ). In addition, I requested a review via Student Aid in XX/XX/XXXX and received no response. I was told on XXXX call that I'm in a XXXXXXXX XXXX covered in red tape and there is little chance this will be resolved. I have 121 months of qualifying employment but only 118 months are counted. Since XX/XX/XXXX I have been paying {$580.00} to XXXX for these loans that I believe should have been forgiven. Please see timeline below.
