Debts can't be inherited, so they would have to go after what was left in your estate, and reclaim what they could from the value of your belongings.

Federal student loan debt is discharged upon death.
If you took out private loans, then those would have to be paid out of your estate. If you have no money upon death, then the estate is bankrupt and the debt is just written off.
INSURANCE
Why do you ask OP? Homework?

My brother an hero in January aged 40.
He had lots of outstanding student loan in the UK. Just dealing with it now. The loan company has life-insurance on the loan to cover them in case you die. I've been dealing with them. They've been surprisingly sensitive; probably because they need your help to prove death.

Sorry for your loss, RIP.

In the US loan debt that is discharged in this manner or forgiven through other means will still count as taxable income for his parents or anybody that originally helped him apply for financial aid. They'll end up footing the bill of an extra 40 grand in income they need to pay taxes on.

The money never existed. They create new money out of thin air when they create a loan. It's a big scam.
