Debt Forgiveness Letter Template | Sample

A debt forgiveness letter informs a debtor that they no longer have to repay a creditor for liabilities owed. This letter is usually sent after the creditor has decided that the debt isn't worth posting to collections or they may benefit from accounting for the receivable as a loss. Either way, the individual will no longer be subject to collection.
