MOHELA forbearance - PSLF

I called MOHELA and asked if the admin forbearance they placed us on would count towards PSLF. I asked if I wanted to pay while on forbearance if it would then continue to apply towards PSLF and was told yes but we would need to make manual payments. Hopefully this helps someone so they don't have to navigate the dreadful phone tree. On that note - I'm also hoping someone hasn't been told something different before I make a waste payment.
