If you’re not able to pay bills on time

It is very important that you contact lenders to communicate and work out a plan so as not to harm your credit. The CFPB have encouraged financial institutions to work with their customers. Call your mortgage servicer before the payment is behind.

If you have student loans

You may qualify for a reduced payment or delay program. In some cases, interest may be halted.
