With credit card balances increasing by $44 billion in late 2025, many borrowers are considering credit card debt forgiveness, which can reduce balances by 30% to 50%. Eligibility typically requires a balance over $7,500, proof of financial hardship, and a history of late payments. However, borrowers should be cautious, as this option can impact credit scores and may have tax implications. It’s important to evaluate interest rates, potential Federal Reserve rate cuts, and the compounding nature of debt before making a decision.
