Payoff verification may be a 30-day payoff statement issued from the creditor with a payoff valid through a specified date, or a screenshot from the creditor's website showing this information. The payoff verification must include the creditor name and address, current loan balance or calculated payoff amount, and the borrower account number.
Consolidation means you are simply combining existing loans. Your total payment amount and total interest will likely remain the same, but you'll have the convenience of making one payment rather than multiple payments. This type of loan is usually associated with federal government student loans.
When you refinance, you are taking out a single new loan to pay off your old ones. You'll probably have a new interest rate, new terms, and a different monthly payment amount. This is the loan solution offered by your credit union.
You will be quoted a rate after your application has been submitted and reviewed. There is no obligation to take the loan once you apply. View our current rates. We encourage you to apply and evaluate your options before making a final decision.
