The bar for that is extremely high.

They can garnish Social Security if you default on Student Loans.

The bar for disability for the Dept of Education is far lower than the bar to qualify for Social Security Disability. A simple letter from a doctor is all you need to discharge the student loans (plus living 3 years under the poverty limit).
