The Housing Authority of Fiji has confirmed its 3 months COVID-19 relief packages can be extended for customers whose financial situation has not improved even after three months.

CEO Robert Sen says these customers can contact the Housing Authority and have a discussion about their situation.

He says they have received 347 applications and out of this, 290 has been approved.

Sen says a few have been declined while they are awaiting further information for some applications.

The Housing Authority of Fiji COVID-19 assistance was for customers who have lost their jobs, are on reduced hours or leave without pay for a certain period of time.

Sen says most of the customers have applied for deferring of repayment for three months while a few have changed the contract whereby the loan repayment can be extended and a few have also opted to pay interest only for 3 months.
