The Student Loan Deduction Act of 2025 proposes an amendment to the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008, aiming to allow households to deduct student loan payments from their income. This change is intended to affect the calculation of eligibility and benefit levels for federal food assistance programs, potentially increasing access or benefits for those with student debt. Specifically, the bill introduces a new provision that permits a deduction for monthly payments made on qualifying student loans. These include federal loans under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 and private education loans . The deduction can be claimed for payments made by any household member on their own or another household member's student loan, becoming effective 180 days after the bill's enactment.
