Before I XXXX in XX/XX/2008 I co-signed my wife 's private student loan since I was employed and she was a student. I came home from XXXX totally and permanently XXXX. My only source of income is VA compensation and XXXX. My wife left me and got a divorce about a year after I returned. I have been making monthly payments to her student loan company for a few years now. I have never missed a payment and my ex refuses to take responsibility. I have made every payment but have also pleaded with the private lender to release me as a cosigner. They have refused, even after I have sent in a copy of my VA award letter stating I am a totally and permanently XXXX veteran and I need my XXXX income to survive. I have pleaded with my congressman and senator to write a bill giving cosigner relief to totally and permanently XXXX veterans. The XXXX Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX is XXXX of the lenders. Since I am a XXXX veteran from XXXX the service members civil relief act extends past my service. I informed them since I am a XXXX veteran they have to at least give me a 7 % APR under the Service Members Civil Relief Act and that request was denied. I believe that might be illegal.
