Pag-IBIG Fund-9

INANUNSIYO ng mga top executive ng Pag-IBIG Fund na nakahanda silang tulungan ang mga miyembro na naapektuhan ng bagyong Rolly.

“We are ready to help our members affected by Typhoon Rollywith our Calamity Loan Program. In fact, taken together with recent calamities, we have 226,170 affected members who are eligible to borrow a total of P4.4 billion in calamity loans. We have also begun establishing service desks in areas affected by Typhoon Rolly to bring our services closer to our members to help them apply for a loan.  This is in line with the directive of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte to provide Filipinos with responsive social benefits especially during trying times,” pahayag ni Secretary Eduardo D. del Rosario, na pinamumunuan ang Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) at ang 11- member Pag-IBIG Fund Board of Trustees.

Sa ilalim ng Calamity Loan Program ng Pag-IBIG Fund, ang eligible members ay maaaring manghiram ng hanggang 80% ng kanilang  kabuuang Pag-IBIG Regular Savings, na kinabibilangan ng kanilang monthly contributions, employer’s contributions, at accumulated dividends.

Ang qualified borrowers ay maaaring mag-avail ng Calamity Loan sa loob ng  90 araw mula sa deklarasyon ng state of calamity sa kanilang lugar.

Dahil sa sitwasyon ng mga miyembro nito, iniaalok ng Pag-IBIG Fund  ang Calamity Loan nito sa rate na 5.95% per annum – ang pinakamababang rate sa merkado. Ang loan ay maaaring bayaran sa loob  ng 24 buwan, kung saan ang first payment ay ipinagpaliban. Ang initial payment ay nakatakda sa ikatlong buwan makaraang mailabas ang loan.

“This year, we have already released P3.84 billion in Calamity Loans to aid 301,391 members affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Taal Volcano eruption, and other calamities,” sabi ni Del Rosario.

“Members in affected areas who still have access to internet service and have a Loyalty Card Plus, Land Bank of the Philippines or United Coconut Planters’ Bank (UCPB) cash card, may file their loan applications via Virtual Pag-IBIG.  This would allow them to file and receive their loans safer and faster, so that they can continue to tend to the needs of their families as they recover from the effects of the typhoon,” dagdag pa niya.
