Assets:

  • Resource limit not to exceed $3,000
  • Owned property will be limited to the home in which the guarantor resides as their main residence which includes any land adjacent to the main residence
  • Automobile(s) needed for transportation to work

Catastrophic Medical Expenses – If you have self pay expenses due to non-routine (catastrophic) medical expenses we will also take these expenses into consideration.

A credit report will be reviewed for current credit extensions.

Payment Plan

Balances on accounts which do not qualify for 100% of the Financial Assistance Program may be paid in full. However in the event that payment in full is not possible a scheduled payment plan will be established.
