Repaying your loan

You may elect a period of 12 to 60 months to repay your loan through payroll deductions. Your loan payments via payroll deduction will begin automatically as soon as possible following loan issuance. If the payroll deduction is not taken for any reason or is insufficient to cover the repayment amount, you are still liable for such payment directly to the Trustee, by personal check or money order. Each installment includes payment of principal and interest on the loan. Interest is paid to the Savings Plan and is part of Common Assets earnings. If you wish, you may prepay all or part of your loan balance at any time. You may repay your loan in full with a cashier's or certified check. Any partial loan repayment can be made by check and may reduce the length of the repayment period, but it will not reduce the monthly installment amount. A loan payment must be received each month.

You may call the STS (Savings Plan Telephone Service) or access the website to obtain loan payoff information.

Loan collateral

When you borrow money from the Savings Plan, the assets in your Savings Plan Account serve as collateral for the loan. When you have an outstanding loan, withdrawals/distributions that will reduce the collateral value below the amount of your outstanding loan balance will be restricted.

If you default on a loan, the assets in your Savings Plan Account will be reduced by the outstanding loan balance at the time of default. This amount may be treated as a taxable distribution and may be subject to an additional 10% tax. See the Tax considerations section for more information. After your loan is declared in default, you will not be able to take out a new loan for five years from the date of default.

Initial payment

Participants may elect loan disbursements via paper check or EFT.
