Can student loan interest be used as a tax deduction if the loans are in deferment/forbearance?

student loan
AG asked:


I know that student loan interest can be deducted.

My student loans are all either in deferment or forbearance. I’m accruing interest on some of them, but I haven’t actually paid any interest yet. Can I deduct the interest that accrued?

Thanks!
