Right I filed just making sure cannot put my license in jeaperdy I am the bread winner. 8forme answered my question exactly. How does the interest work when the chap 13 over?

For most things, licenses, etc, the BK will have no affect. What is worse, really, owing a bunch of debt you can't pay and going into default, or filing BK to "solve" the debt problem and no owing anyone any money...who is really worse from an employers perspective.

I am a nurse and owe a small amount in student loans, less than 5K. They have been in forbearance for over 3 years now. We filed CH13 last Sept and it did not affect my licensure. In fact, that was our year to renew and it all went smoothly. We have to renew every 2 years. We filed in Sept and I renewed my license in Nov with no issues. The only reason I wouldn't be renewed is if I did not complete my continuing education hours or had some disciplinary actions, then the Board of Nursing decides to renew me, suspend me, or revoke me, not the state.

Chapter 13 and 7 can have an effect on the renewal of government clearances, etc. Uncertain about state licensing for certain professions - pull out your student loan paperwork which you signed when you took the loan and your paperwork for your licensing in your state and review for any clauses as to filing BK or non-payment of student loans. A review of your State Code for professional licensing might provide some answers for you also and you can always consult with an attorney in your state to be on the safe side.
