If you want to delay doing this for a bit, you can request interest only payments for 6 months on your gov't student loans. While the interest is paused until March 2023, this means very low payments (b/c neither portion of my gov't loans are accruing interest right now, being from BC, I am paying $10/month, this will vary depending on your provincial loan origin). After that you get a reduced monthly repayment amount for 2 years. Mine reduced by about 40%/month. After the 6 months of interest only payments it may make more sense to consolidate. I don't have the room on my LoC to do that unfortunately, but if it makes sense for you I cannot see why not. Just do your math well or talk to a financial advisor!
