RAP applies a flat bracket percentage to your full AGI, so the payment rises smoothly with income. New IBR shelters 150% of the poverty line first, so it tends to win at higher incomes. See RAP vs IBR and how RAP works for the full rules.
Estimates use published RAP rules as of June 2026 and 2025 HHS poverty guidelines for a single-person household. Confirm with your servicer.
