Tips for avoiding fraud, identity theft and financial scams - CUInsight
It’s never too soon to prepare for retirement. In fact, the earlier you start to prepare the easier it is to save. Because we know that very few Americans have a plan for retirement savings that will actually cover their desired lifestyle, on this day we’ll focus on the importance of setting aside time to understand your retirement needs and making a plan to meet them.#Save2Retire, #ASW2021
The past year has taught us that we have to be as prepared as possible for the unexpected. While we all have future savings goals, having an emergency fund to support present unaccounted for needs, like a car breakdown, dental bill, or even a last minute fun treat should be a top priority. On this day we’ll focus on motivating individuals to prioritize building an emergency savings fund.#Save4TheUnexpected, #EmergencySavings #ASW2021
The easiest way to save? Automatically! It doesn’t matter how much or what you’re saving for, when you make the smart decision to have a portion of your income automatically deposited into a savings account, you have increased your chance for success. #SaveAsAFamily, #ASW2021

Let us help you with PPP Loans!
In case you missed it! Building on a month of strong Paycheck Protection Program results, the Biden-Harris Administration and the U.S. Small Business Administration are taking steps that will further promote equitable relief for America’s mom-and-pop businesses. These simple progressive steps by the Biden-Harris Administration further demonstrate the commitment to racial and gender equity, reaching low and moderate-income, rural, urban, and other underserved areas. The SBA has established a 14-day, exclusive PPP loan application period for businesses and nonprofits with fewer than 20 employee that ends on March 9, 2021 at 5:00 pm ET.
Additionally, the Agency will:
• Allow sole proprietors, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals to receive more financial support by revising the PPP’s funding formula for these categories of applicants
• Eliminate an exclusionary restriction on PPP access for small business owners with prior non-financial fraud felony convictions, consistent with a bipartisan congressional proposal
• Eliminate PPP access restrictions on small business owners who have struggled to make federal student loan payments by eliminating federal student loan debt delinquency and default as disqualifiers to participating in the PPP; and
• Ensure access for non-citizen small business owners who are lawfully residing in the U.S. by clarifying that they may use an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to apply for the PPP.
These actions will help to lay the foundation for a robust and equitable recovery for small businesses across the country. Small businesses employ nearly half of the American workforce; they create 2 out of 3 net new private-sector jobs; they reinvest 68% of revenues to build and sustain communities.
Borrowers can apply for the Paycheck Protection Program by downloading the First Draw PPP loan application or Second Draw PPP loan application and working with a participating PPP lender.
So call and ask to speak to Kevin Harvey for assistance with a PPP Loan.

The next round of Economic Impact Payments (stimulus checks) will begin soon from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
We will process the payments as we receive them. CVFCU does not have any additional information as to when your payment will be made, the amount you will receive or to which account it will be deposited to. For more information regarding the status of your check, please visit the IRS website.
You can setup alerts from cuOnline to let you know when deposits are made to your account to make life a little easier!
