I cosigned my son 's student loan. He is XXXX and can not pay the loan. The loan amount was XXXX. I 've been paying the loan monthly to AES. When he defaulted on the loan, I was notified and immediately began to make monthly payments. I never missed a payment. I became XXXX this past year, and I heard about Obama 's ruling on releasing loan repayment obligations when a loan has been repayed monthly without any lapses or deferment. I contacted AES to get the loan discharged, but they claimed that this loan was deferred for one month before I even knew it was in default. I did n't authorize any deferment ever, and I 've been paying the loan for more than 48 months without any lapses. They claimed that I am responsible for my son 's initial request to defer the loan for a month without ever informing me about this decision. My son has a psychiatric XXXX which limits his rational decision making ability. Now, we are both XXXX. AES claims that I 'm basically stuck with repaying the loan. The percentage rate is very high at 9.493 % which is above the original rate I was given. This company refused to provide me with the bank information associated with this loan which was initially XXXX Bank. Thank You, XXXX XXXX XXXX
