Additional conditions

  • The loan can be repaid from the monthly allowance that is paid to you, provided that the monthly amount remaining after deduction of the loan is of at least two third of the allowance.
    Example: if the amount of the monthly allowance is NIS 3,000, it is possible to repay the loan from the allowance if the repayment amount is up to NIS 1,000.
  • For all types of loan, the funding provided by the National Insurance will be the last amount of money the complete the purpose.
    Example: if I asked a renovation loan, the cost of the renovation amounts to NIS 100,000 and the maximum loan that can be granted totals NIS 70,000. I will need to prove to the rehabilitation worker that I have already paid NIS 30,000 from another funding source at my disposal, and only after, I will be able to receive a loan of NIS 70,000 from the National Insurance.
