RULE §4.25Conditional Grant Program

    (C) 72 equal monthly installments for students who received grants for more than two years, but less than three years; or

    (D) 48 equal monthly installments for students who received grants for less than two years.

  (3) The installment is based on the amount owed the department and must be paid each month. Repayments may be made in fewer than the required number of installments.

  (4) A student will not be required to begin payments until after the student's expected date of graduation as determined on the date of the determination of default.

  (5) A student who completes an eligible degree and does not work for the department for two academic years immediately following the date of the student's receipt of an eligible degree from a Texas institution will be required to:

    (A) begin payments three months subsequent to the determination of default; and

    (B) pay a minimum monthly installment of $200.

  (6) The department will waive repayment of any remaining amounts for a student who defaults and graduates with an eligible degree and honors the original agreement to work for the department in an eligible profession for at least two academic years commencing immediately upon graduation.

  (7) The department may temporarily reduce or defer the required payments or extend the prescribed repayment period, upon approval of the executive director, if a student submits a formal request, demonstrates his or her inability to pay due to catastrophic illness or family emergency, and follows all conditional grant requirements during the deferment period. Any reduction, deferral, or extension will not relieve a student of his or her responsibility to repay all funds.

  (8) Credit bureau notification. The department will notify the appropriate credit bureaus or agencies if a student fails to repay the department or fails to adhere to the terms of the conditional grant agreement.

(k) Child support statement.

  (2) A student shall provide along with the application submitted as required by subsection (d) of this section a signed, sworn statement, in a form and manner prescribed by the department, affirming that the student is not 30 or more days delinquent in providing child support under a court order or a written repayment agreement.

  (3) A student who is ineligible under this section shall remain ineligible to receive funds under this subchapter until:

    (A) all arrearages have been paid; or

    (B) the student is in compliance with a written repayment agreement or court order as to any existing delinquency.

  (4) A student who is found to have submitted a falsely sworn statement under this section shall, upon demand, remit to the department all funds received while ineligible under paragraph (1) of this subsection.
