Hardship Factors Summary & Guidance

Please complete all previous tabs to view your summary and guidance.

Important Next Steps:
  • This tool provides a general indication based on common factors. It is NOT a guarantee of eligibility for any specific assistance program.
  • Contact your lender(s) or loan servicer(s) IMMEDIATELY to explain your situation and discuss available hardship options (e.g., forbearance, deferment, loan modification, reduced payment plans).
  • Be prepared to provide documentation to your lender (e.g., proof of income loss, recent bank statements, medical bills, a hardship letter).
  • Consider contacting a non-profit credit counseling agency for free or low-cost assistance. In the U.S., you can find one through the National Foundation for Credit Counseling (NFCC).
  • For specific loan types, explore official resources:

Employment Status: ${fhlae_getSelectedText('isEmployed')}

Total Essential Monthly Expenses: ${fhlae_formatCurrency(fhlae_userData.expenses.totalEssential)}

Total Other Monthly Debt Payments: ${fhlae_formatCurrency(fhlae_userData.otherDebtPayments)}

Income After Essentials & Other Debts: ${fhlae_formatCurrency(fhlae_userData.calculated.incomeAfterEssentialsAndDebts)}

Liquid Savings Cover Approx: ${isFinite(fhlae_userData.calculated.savingsBufferMonths) ? fhlae_userData.calculated.savingsBufferMonths.toFixed(1) + ' months of expenses/debts' : 'N/A (or expenses are zero)'}

Recent Major Financial Event: ${fhlae_getSelectedText('majorUnexpectedEvent')}
