How long will my accounts take to pay off on the debt management plan?
The debt management plan is designed so that consumers can pay off their accounts within a 3 to 5 year period. Some clients begin the debt management plan during a time of severe distress due to an unforeseen hardship and therefore are only able to make minimum payments to start. As they begin to regain financial stability, however, many clients are able to send more than the minimum payments and therefore complete their debt management plans earlier than forecasted.
