**APR = Annual Percentage Rate. Loan approval, rate, and term based on creditworthiness. Example: A $1,000 loan for 12 months at 7.99% APR would result in a monthly payment of approximately $87.03. 0% APR applies for the first 60 days; after that, the rate will revert to the qualified loan rate. Payment deferral for the first 90 days is available; interest will continue to accrue during the deferment period. Full details are available at the credit union.

Skip-a-payment: excludes First mortgages, home equity loans, home equity lines of credit, commercial loans, student loans, and credit cards . Employment verification and proof of income interruption may be required. Offer valid for a limited time. These offers are not available once the job interruption has ended. Federally insured by NCUA.
