Consumer Loan Payment or VISA Credit Card Payment Extension:  If you have a loan payment due and you are short of funds because of COVID-19 related issues, please reach out to us for help.  We are tempoarily providing a 90-day extension even if you have recently had a Skip-a-Pay.  However, please reach out BEFORE you are delinquent as some extensions (credit card) can't be given once a member falls into the delinquent category.   You can email:  info@holyrosarycu.org and request an extension or call our Member Solutions Representative at 816.221.2734 extension 116 (for Spanish 101, Vietnamese 108).  You will be asked to complete updated contact inforomation and sign an extension agreement.   

IMPORTANT NOTE TO AVOID FEES:  If you have an automatic payment for any loan with HRCU, you will still need to make sure that is stopped once the agreement is signed.   We cannot stop a preauthorized payment from another financial institution.   You must originate stopping the payment three (3) days prior to the transaction date.
