When loan repayment is a part of a job offer, how does it work? Let's say it's $20,000/yr. Do they pay the $20,000 in one lump sum or do you have the option of having them make 12 payments of $1670/month in essence making your loan payment each month)?
I ask as my student loan debt will be so large that I would plan on taking IBR for 25 years. If they paid 20K once a year I am still on the hook for the monthly payments and in the end I would not be any better off (particularly if I have to make the same monthly payments as well as the tax on the addtional 20K)
Is this money taxed? So if my salary is 160K do I owe the taxes on 180K? Do they withold the tax that prior to making the payment?
