Answer 1

You have to call the lender. I was in default once. I had to do a rehab program where I paid a certain amount and then had to make payments on time for like 3 or 6 months for them to take me out of the default. Then I was able to apply for deferment after I brought it current.

Mind you this was about 6 years ago.  

Answer 2

How behind are they?  

Answer 3

Can you request a deferment? That's probably the easiest way - you'll accrue interest (and a lot of it), but you can still make whatever payment you can on them during the deferment and, once the deferment is over, you'll start making payments again.  

Answer 4

Contact your lender. You can apply for deferments or forbearance.  

Answer 5

They've been in default a little over a year. ‍♀️
