The Jan 18, 2024 repayment deadline for the CEBA program has now passed. Starting Jan 19, 2024, all outstanding CEBA loans would start to accrue interest at a 5% annual rate, and are payable in-full by Dec 31, 2026. CEBA loanholders who applied to refinance with the financial institution from which they received their loan would be eligible to repay it by Mar 28, 2024, and still received partial loan forgiveness; otherwise, partial loan forgiveness is no longer available.¹

Notice
Vancity contacted all CEBA loanholder-members at the email addresses provided during the loan sign-up process; these emails contained important information about the CEBA program and repayment options.
Where do I go to repay my loan?
To make partial payments online, log in to Online Banking, select “Transfer Money” in the left navigation and transfer to payments to your CEBA loan account. To pay off the loan in full or make the final payment, transfer the remaining balance, or call us or visit a branch for assistance. It may take time for your payment to be reflected in Online Banking.
I repaid my loan. When is my forgiveness applied?
If you repaid your CEBA loan according to the criteria to receive partial loan forgiveness, and you were eligible for said forgiveness, the forgivable amount of CEBA borrowings may still appear in your account while it is processed. If the forgivable amount no longer appears, your loan forgiveness has already been processed.
If you had multiple CEBA loans with Vancity across this business or other entities, please ensure you take action to repay those CEBA loans accordingly.
