Your real odds
Your odds depend on your credit profile and loan type, and the credit union explicitly offers products for members under financial stress, including consolidation and relief loans.
Democracy FCU is a CDFI credit union designed to serve members who may not qualify at traditional banks, so approval is possible with a stressed profile, though rates and terms still vary by creditworthiness.
