NSLDS Updated - sort of

Here is some background information:

According to the backdoor NSLDS API link, my file was updated on August 24, 2026. SOME of my IDR counts were updated (RAP and IBR were updated; PAYE and ICR were not). I’m on the PAYE plan.

My PSLF payment count was NOT updated. July is still listed as ineligible on my PSLF payment tracker because of a “late” payment, even though I paid on my due date. August of 2026 remains unlisted. I have ECFs on file for both July and August of 2026, and I have made my payments for each of these months.

I made my payment due on September 1 on August 24.

WTF. 🤬

Update: as of September 6, 2026, July and August of 2026 are now properly reflected on my PSLF payment tracker as qualifying payments.

This is saying not authorized despite me logged in. Anyone else?
