Your hardship letter should be honest, concise, and under one page. It should explain your current financial situation and what caused it. Dont include unnecessary or damaging details, such as blaming the lender or mentioning outside financial help might be available.
Financial hardship may be deemed to exist when the debtor needs substantially all of his or her current and anticipated income and liquid assets to meet current and anticipated ordinary and necessary living expenses during the projected period of collection.
Tips for Writing a Hardship Letter Keep it original. Be honest. Keep it concise. Dont cast blame or shirk responsibility. Dont use jargon or fancy words. Keep your objectives in mind. Provide the creditor an action plan. Talk to a Financial Counselor.
