Background/Status Update

Why are credit unions stepping up to help? It is the primary mission of credit unions to serve their member owners in

both good times as well as times of financial distress.

Which Illinois credit unions are offering Loan Assistance Programs to State of Illinois employees?

For a current list of participating CUs please go to ICUL website: www.icul.com

Who is eligible for a loan? All State of Illinois employees 18 years of age experiencing an

interruption in payroll due to the current State budget impasse. (please contact a participating credit union for specific information regarding membership eligibility requirements)

Background/Status Update

Must I be an existing credit union member at the time of application to be eligible for a payroll interruption loan? While some credit unions may limit their loan assistance programs to

existing members as of a specific date, many are also extending eligibility to new members.

Am I guaranteed approval of a payroll interruption loan? No. While every effort will be made by your credit union to offer

assistance using very fair underwriting criteria, some individuals may not qualify.

How long will it take to be approved and receive loan proceeds from my credit union? While loan approval and disbursement of proceeds will vary, all

participating credit unions understand the extreme urgency of the situation and the need to quickly process applications.

Background/Status Update

Are all Loan Assistance Programs offered by Illinois credit unions the same? No, a variety of different programs, terms, rates and other options are

being offered to assist.

Why are some of the loan assistance programs limiting loans to an amount less than my current net pay at the time of application? Credit unions must balance their mission of helping their members with

regulatory requirements to adhere to safe and sound loan underwriting standards. Net payroll amounts can vary depending on voluntary elections by an employee such as tax withholdings amounts, U.S. Savings Bonds, deferred compensation and other payroll deductions or by involuntary outside factors such as wage garnishments, tax liens, child support, etc. For this reason, a “safety” buffer between the actual amount of the loan and current net pay may be required.

Background/Status Update

What other options can my credit union provide to assist me beyond Loan Assistance Programs? Some credit unions are also offering payment

deferrals/extensions (“skip a payment”) and/or refinance options on existing loans as well as other options for impacted members such as early withdrawal without penalty on Certificates of Deposit, Christmas clubs or other special accounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will be charged interest beginning on the date you are no longer employed with the State of Illinois, for whatever reason.

Definitions: The words “We”, “Us” and “Our” mean the credit union. The words “You” and “Your” mean the borrower. How We Will Calculate Your Balance: We will use a balance computation method called daily balance. See Your Membership And Account Agreement for more details. Billing Rights: Information on Your rights to dispute transactions and how to exercise those rights is provided in Your Membership And Agreement. * Assistance Period: The “Assistance Period” is defined as the time period that Your employer, the State of Illinois, has suspended Your full payroll and until the thirty-first (31st) calendar day after Your full payroll is reinstated by Your employer, the State of Illinois. Repayment Term:

A. The Assistance Period Does Not End Within 180 Days From Date Of Your Loan Advance: In the event that Your Employer, the State of Illinois, has not reinstated Your full payroll, for whatever reason, within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days from the date of Your loan advance, upon the 181st calendar day, Your loan shall become immediately due and payable and Your applicable interest rate shall immediately become 9.90% APR. Your repayment term shall be for no greater than forty-eight (48) months beginning on the 181st calendar day and Your minimum monthly payment shall be no less than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). Your first monthly payment shall be due on the last calendar day of the month that immediately follows the month within which the 181st calendar day falls. Thereafter, Your monthly payment shall be due on the last calendar day of each succeeding month until the entire balance owed is paid in full.

Example: You receive a loan advance on July 15, 2015 in the amount of $500.00. The Assistance Period does not end before January 11, 2016 (180 days from July 15, 2015), Your loan will become immediately due on January 12, 2016 and you will begin to be charged interest at 9.90% APR. You will be required to repay the loan and your first monthly payment will be due on February 29, 2016 in the amount of, in this example, $100.00.

A. End Of Assistance Period: Once the Assistance Period has ended, Your loan shall be immediately due and You shall have thirty

(30) calendar days in which to repay the entire balance owed without incurring interest charges. If You do not repay the entire balance owed within thirty (30) calendar days after the Assistance Period has ended, on the thirty-first (31st) calendar day the applicable APR shall become 9.90% APR and shall continue at that rate until the loan is paid in full. Your repayment term shall be for no greater than forty-eight (48) months beginning with your first monthly payment due date and your minimum monthly payment amount shall be no less than $100.00. Your first monthly payment shall be due on the last calendar day of the month that immediately follows the month within which the thirty-first (31st) calendar day after the Assistance Period ends falls. Thereafter, Your monthly payment shall be due on the last calendar day of each succeeding month until the entire balance owed is paid in full.

Example: You receive a loan advance on July 15, 2015 in the amount of $500.00. Your employer, the State of Illinois, reinstates Your full payroll on September 15, 2015 and, therefore, the Assistance Period ends on October 16, 2015 (31 days from September 15, 2015). You have until November 15, 2015 (30 days from the date the Assistance Period ends) in which to repay your loan without incurring any interest charges. If you do not repay Your loan in full before November 15, 2015, You will begin to be charged interest on November 16, 2015 at the rate of 9.90% APR and your first monthly payment will be due on December 31, 2015 in the amount of, in this example, $100.00.

B. No Longer Employed By State of Illinois: Immediately effective on the date that You are no longer employed with the State of

Illinois, for whatever reason, Your interest rate shall immediately become 9.90% APR and Your loan shall be immediately due. In that event, You agree to repay the loan with interest at 9.90% APR in no more than forty-eight months from the date that You are no longer employed with the State of Illinois, for whatever reason, and your minimum monthly payment shall be no less than $100.00 with the first monthly payment being due on the last calendar of the month that imm ediately follows the month in which the date that You are no longer employed with the State of Illinois, for whatever reason, falls.

Example: You receive a loan advance on July 15, 2015 in the amount of $500.00. As of October 1, 2015, the State of Illinois has not reinstated payroll; however, You are no longer employed with the State of Illinois effective October 1, 2015. On October 1, 2015, Your loan will be immediately due and You will begin to be charged interest at the rate of 9.90% APR. Your first monthly payment will be due on November 30, 2015 in the amount of, in this example, $100.00.

Late Charge: A late charge of $25.00 will be assessed if Your payment is 10 days or more delinquent. If any payment is late, you may be charged the late charge. You agree to pay the late charge if one is charged. In the event that app licable law is interpreted so that interest or other charges collected in connection with any loans under the Plan would exceed permitted limits, any such charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the total charge to the permitted limit and sums already collected which exceed the permitted limits shall be credit to the principle amount of the loan or refunded at the discretion of the Credit Union. Return Payment: Returned Payment fee will be assessed on each item returned unpaid and will be added to the outstanding loan balance. Collection Costs. You promise to pay, subject to applicable law, all costs of collecting what you owe under this Agreement and all costs of rea lizing on any security for the Plan including court costs, collection agency fees and reasonable attorney’s fees. We may enter into a contingent or hourly fee arrangement with an attorney or collection agency and you agree that such an Agreement is reasonable. This provision also applies to bankruptcy, appeals or post-judgment proceedings. Additional discounts do not apply to the LAP program. You may prepay Your loan at any time without penalty.
