Emergency Financial Assistance Program

We understand the economic challenges posed by the government shutdown, and the impact it has on our federal employee members and their families.

We have launched our Emergency Financial Assistance Program to help current Hawaii State FCU members directly affected by the shutdown by offering low-rate personal loans, loan payment deferrals, and waiving early withdrawal fees for term shares.

Emergency Assistance Loan1

Access emergency funding up to $2,500 with no payments required for the first three months and no prepayment penalty for qualifying members.

Deferral of Loan Payments2

Hawaii State FCU loan payments may be deferred for one to three months for qualifying members. Available on select consumer loans. Interest continues to accrue during the deferral period. Deferring payments will extend the loan term by up to three months and result in a final balloon payment. Mortgage loans are not eligible for this program. Deferral options for HELOCs and revolving lines of credit may vary – please contact Hawaii State FCU for details.

Penalty-Free Term Share Withdrawals3

If you have an existing term share account and need to access the funds, you may make penalty-free withdrawals without an early withdrawal penalty.
