What is a Surety?
A Surety is someone who is willing to agree to assume equal financial responsibility if the EXTRA borrower cannot make his/her payments. A Surety may be a parent, relative or close friend of the borrower.

What are the requirements a Surety must meet?

  • U.S. citizen;
  • 18 or older;
  • Has a valid Social Security Number;
  • Has an established and satisfactory credit history; and
  • Be willing to assume equal financial responsibility for the EXTRA loan if the borrower is unable to re-pay.

How do I begin the Surety Application process?

  • The borrower must give you the Loan Application Number and his/her Social Security Number. We suggest you print out the instruction page;
  • Create your own user profile in "My CFNC";
  • Select "Online Applications/Financial Aid/EXTRA/Surety".

If your credit report meets the EXTRA credit requirement, you and the borrower will need to sign the Application/Promissory Note in the same manner.

EXTRA Applicant User Manual contains useful instructions to complete the application.
