Important message to our Travel Loan ClientS
As our nation confronts the world-wide COVID-19 pandemic, we want to remind you of our commitment to your safety and well-being.
We know that increasing numbers of people have had to make drastic and sudden adjustments to their lives: coping with loss of income, caring for children who can no longer go to school, restricting movements to essential needs only.
About your IOM Travel Loan:
If you have experienced a pay cut or loss of employment due to the pandemic and need help with your account, please contact us as soon as possible at 866-507-9464 or travelloan@lirs.org.
In response and acting in co-ordination with the International Organization for Migration (IOM), we have authority to modify your travel loan repayment plan as needed during this public health emergency.
We are guided by two goals:
- Your economic well-being; making sure your monthly payment is within your means
- Protecting the credit status of your account
