Government Shutdown and Furlough Assistance

Although the shutdown is temporarily over, we are still honoring shutdown requests for a line of credit through February 8th. These loans will carry a 0% interest rate for 30 days from when the loan is given.

We have put together the following products and services*:

1. Shutdown Line of Credit – Net Paycheck up to $25,000**

Interest Free for up to 30 days, or for the duration of the shutdown, whichever is longer; thereafter standard rates will apply.

Member may apply for a limit up to the equivalent of 4 net paychecks.

APPLY

2. If You Have an Existing Personal Line of Credit***

Interior FCU will be lowering the rate on all existing lines of credit to 0% for the duration of the government shutdown, beginning the 3rd business day following the shutdown.

This is a benefit of being a credit union member- regardless if you are affected by the government shutdown or not. ALL Personal Lines of Credit get the benefit of 0% interest during government shutdowns to keep it easy across our membership. So, get your line of credit today, so that when the next shutdown occurs, you’re ready. We want to be there for you when you need help the most, and having your PLOC already approved and waiting eliminates the need to apply last minute and getting backed up in our loan queue.

The Interior Credit Union recognizes that even after the Government shutdown is resolved, our members may still be facing financial hardship due to the continuing furlough. To assist with this, the credit union has developed an additional loan product. Please contact us after the shutdown is resolved for details.
