Skip-A-Payment
Relief is here.
We know these unexpected changes to our daily lives can cause a stressful time financially. To help as much as possible, we are offering Emergency Relief Skip-a-Payments on loans. This is in addition to our regular skip option we offer every 12 months. We WILL WAIVE the standard fee for these Emergency Relief Skip a Pays.
You may utilize an emergency skip per qualifying loan with due dates between March 1, 2020 and July 31, 2020. Please submit your request during the month in which you wish to skip. For example, do not request to skip June’s payment until June.
SBA Business Loans and severely delinquent loans are not eligible for skip. For skipping other business loans, please email us. Please remember that the original term of your loan will be extended by one month, and interest will continue to accrue on your loan, even if no payment is due. If you skip your Visa payment, you are not eligible for a grace period. If you experience a total loss or unrecovered theft of your vehicle and have purchased Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) coverage, a skip-a-pay may reduce your GAP coverage by the amount of your monthly payment plus the skip-a-pay fee.
