Geithner: US could pass debt limit by mid-February Jan 14th 2013, 23:58 Published January 14, 2013 Associated Press Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is telling congressional leaders that the U.S. government will exhaust its borrowing limit as soon as mid-February, earlier than expected. The government reached its $16.4 trillion borrowing limit on Dec. 31, but began using bookkeeping maneuvers to keep from surpassing it.

Geithner said he would provide a more precise estimate of when the government will reach that threshold once it moves closer to the deadline.
