What happened to the deferred principal when make large payments?

When you make large payments on a loan with deferred principal, the extra amount typically goes towards reducing the principal balance. This can lead to a decrease in the overall interest paid over the life of the loan, as interest is often calculated on the remaining principal. Additionally, making large payments can help you pay off the loan faster, potentially shortening the repayment period. Always check with your lender to understand how they apply large payments.
