Special Member Assistance
We Stand Ready to Assist
As Congress continues discussions to ratify a spending bill to fund the federal government, Justice Federal stands ready to offer assistance in the form of a Special Assistance Loan, and deferred payments to employees of the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security, other federal employees, and federal government contractors in the event of a government shutdown.

Members requesting and qualifying for a Consumer Loan payment deferment may obtain a deferment up to 30 days. Based on the length of the Federal Government shutdown, Members may request an additional 30-day deferment***
