The Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) has outlined the steps to access a loan statement and check the amount still owed to the board.

In a notice on Monday, August 25, HELB revealed that the information can be obtained from the loanee's portal, which is also accessible through its mobile app.

At the portal, you can find your statement on loan balance after repayments or before you start paying back. "You can easily view your loan balance and download your statement from the HELB Portal, helb.co.ke/loanees-portal," the notice read.
