President Biden speaks Friday at Delaware State University in Dover about student debt relief. Anna MoneymakerGetty Images A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked President Bidens student loan cancellation plan, preventing him from repaying the debt. However, the administration continues to invite applications. The verdict was announced on Friday evening, less than a week after the application portal was launched. Almost 22 million people have already registered - more than half of eligible borrowers. The administration could begin processing applications and adjusting loan balances from Sunday. The order does not reverse the courts dismissal of the case, nor does it mean that the case has merit, White House press secretary Karin Jean-Pierre said in a statement Friday night. It simply makes it impossible to settle the debt until the court makes a decision. The ban came after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit heard a request by six Republican-led states to end the program. This is one of several lawsuits aimed at challenging the program. Earlier this week, Superior Court Judge Amy Coney Barrett rejected a similar effort by a group of Wisconsin taxpayers. What happened at the trial? Six states -- Arkansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and South Carolina -- have filed a lawsuit, arguing that the federal bailout program will hurt state lending companies that service some federal loans themselves. A federal judge dismissed the case earlier this week, saying it was without merit. The group then appealed, asking a federal appeals court to temporarily halt the program while the appeals court hears the case. What to do for those who have not yet applied? The application at studentaid.gov is still open. Jean-Pierre said the temporary order does not prevent borrowers from applying for relief and encouraged them to do so if they have not already done so. What happens to people who have already applied for debt relief? According to Jean-Pierre, the court ruling does not prevent the federal government from reviewing applications or preparing documents for loan servicers. We are moving forward with full force to be ready to provide relief to borrowers, said Education Minister Miguel Cardona. Todays interim decision does not prevent the Biden administration from trying to allow borrowers to apply for debt relief, nor does it prevent us from reviewing the millions of applications we receive, he said. How long is a judicial suspension? In the coming days, one of two things could happen: Either the court could order the waiver and the stay would be extended, or it could dismiss the case and the program could continue. A federal appeals court is expected to issue its ruling early next week. NPRs Sequoia Carrillo contributed to the relationship.

Anna MoneymakerGetty Images A federal appeals court temporarily blocked President Bidens plan to write off student loans, eliminating debt relief.
