If you are experiencing a financial hardship due to the pandemic, you have the option to temporarily pause your mortgage payments. This is called a forbearance. During the forbearance period, we will suspend negative credit reporting. 

While forbearance may be a great option to help you through this crisis, remember, once your forbearance is over, any paused payments will need to be repaid. Well work with you to find a payment solution that works for you. 
Is forbearance the right option for you? Forbearance due to the COVID-19 pandemic is available to you in the following situations : You have lost work due to the pandemic. 
You are sick and cant work. 
You are caring for a sick family member and therefore cant work. 
You have experienced a significant decline in income due to the pandemic. 
If you qualify for a forbearance, youll be able to pause your mortgage payments for an initial period of time. After that period, well work with you to reevaluate your situation and figure out whats next. 
What happens after a forbearance? At the end of your forbearance period, all payments not made during the forbearance period will have to be paid back. We will be in contact with you to review options for repayment, such as : Pay it as a lump sum Start a repayment plan Over a set number of months, an extra amount will be added to your regular mortgage payment to cover the amount you owe from the forbearance. 
Loan modification If you are unable to pay a lump sum or through a repayment plan, we will work with you on a loan modification. 
Note : Please dont stop making your mortgage payments until youve been approved for a forbearance plan. These programs are not payment forgiveness programs. Theyll require any paused payments to be repaid.
