3- My son XXXX XXXX XXXX is the loan holder and I am the C/O signer. My son submitted an application to NJCLASS to stop pay the loan following the Governors executive order, but due to lack of responds from the creditor as a result of Covid -19 ( was no workers to process that application caused delay for process and many people thought it was ok but nothing was done! ). 
4- However my son thought that his application was approved therefore stopped pay the loan until I discovered negative remark on my credit report today. MY SON ALSO DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED THEREFORE HE CONTACTED THE CREDITOR ( HESSA ) on XX/XX/XXXX to find out what happened?
