On Monday, President Biden announced the application for his student loan relief program is officially live.

The administration published a beta version of the application last week. Since its launch on Friday, more than 8 million borrowers have already applied for debt relief, with no reported glitches or crashes according to the White House.

“It’s easy. It’s fast,” Biden said in a press conference announcing the launch, noting applications take less than 5 minutes and can be done on desktop or phone.
