A regular share account with a $25 minimum deposit, a completed loan application and proof of income (a recent paystub or copy of your tax return) are required for loan processing.

Each loan application is judged on an individual basis, and all records and comments are strictly confidential.

REPAYMENT
The method of payment is established at the time the loan is approved. Repayment may be made via direct deposit or payroll deduction distributions, by mail, in person, via home banking (CU@HOME), via audio response (CU*TALK), or by an automatic transfer from another Credit Union account.

Illinois Educators Credit Union imposes NO PENALTIES if a loan is paid off before the end of the contract. If you choose to pay off the loan early, you will save money because the Credit Union charges you interest only for the amount of time you borrow the money. This is a great advantage of a simple-interest loan.

INTEREST RATES
Interest rates vary for different types of loans. Check out our current loans rates.

Loan protection is available to our members at a reasonable cost. This includes Credit Life and Disability.

LOAN DISCOUNTS
 You automatically get an extra .25% off your loan rate if you pay back your loan via payroll deduction or direct deposit.

BEAT-THE-RATE PROGRAM
If you find a loan rate better than ours, we may be able to beat it by .25%. The final rate must fall within Credit Union guidelines. Proof of the better rate must be verified and documented by the member.
