34 C.F.R. § 682.513 Factors affecting coverage of a loan under the loan guarantee.
Title 34 - Education
(a)(1) In determining whether to approve for payment a claim against the Secretary's guarantee, the Secretary considers matters affecting the enforceability of the loan obligation and whether the loan was made and administered in accordance with the Act and applicable regulations. (2) The Secretary deducts from a claim any amount that is not a legally enforceable obligation of the borrower, except to the extent that the defense of infancy applies. (3) Except as provided in §682.509, the Secretary does not pay a claim unless— (i) All holders of the loan have complied with the requirements of this part, including, but not limited to, those concerning due diligence in the making, servicing, and collecting of a loan; (ii) The current holder has complied with the deadlines for filing a claim established in §682.511(e); and (iii) The current holder complies with the requirements for submitting documents with a claim as established in §682.511(b). (b) Except as provided in §682.509, the Secretary does not pay a death, disability, or bankruptcy claim for a loan after a default claim for that loan has been disapproved by the Secretary or if it would not be payable as a default claim by the Secretary. (c) The Secretary's determination of the amount of loss payable on a default claim under this part, once final, is conclusive and binding on the lender that filed the claim. Note: A determination of the Secretary under this section is subject to judicial review under 5 U.S.C. 706 and 41 U.S.C. 321–322. (Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1078–1, 1078–2, 1078–3, 1079, 1080, 1082)
