Private College Student Loan

What happens in student loans under contingent if a disability is filed and a spouse is on the plan?

I am eligible to have my student loans removed due to a severe, lifetime disability, diagnosed five years ago. We did the income contingent plan but since I will have my loans discharged, what happens to my spouses eligibility to ever return to school and get a loan? Does her loans that aren't on the contingent plan combine with ones that aren't?

1. you and your spouse are two totally separate people. Your getting your loans discharged has absolutely nothing to do with their eligibility or their loans. If they have loans, or want to get loans, you have nothing to do with it. They can do that, again, you aren't that important and no, loans of spouses never "combine"... again, you are two separate people.
