- A $30 fee applies for each loan skipped; this can either be debited from your GICU savings or checking account or can be paid by check.

A “monthly payment” is defined by the payment frequency:
• Monthly =1 Payment
• Semi-Monthly = 2 consecutive payments
• Bi-Weekly = 2 consecutive payments
• Weekly = 4 consecutive payments
- The Skip-A-Payment request will not be processed until the completed form and applicable fees have been received. The fee to take advantage of this offer is $30. If you choose to skip more than one loan, the $30 fee is collected for each loan.
- You must be in good standing with the credit union. This means all loans and account balances must be current when the skip-a-payment request form is received by the credit union.
- The skip-a-payment offer requires that the previous three months of payments have been made. This service is limited to two times in any rolling 12 month period and a maximum of six per loan.
- Some loans may not qualify for this offer, including but not limited to: mortgages, home equity, personal lines of credit, credit cards, commercial loans, and any loan with an annual percentage rate (APR) greater than or equal to 18%.
