Being a DepEd Educator usually is known to have a secure career and a competitive salary depending on the rank. However, regardless how stable their job is, these teachers also experience a shortage in budget due to unexpected or emergency expenses or possible investments at hand which would opt them into an idea of getting a teacher’s loan.
Advantages for DepEd Educators
DepEd teachers can take advantage of a loanable amount of 500,000 php in most loan providers and some even offered a maximum of 875,000php. Most of the loan providers also a salary deduction scheme that would make it convenient for teachers especially with their busy schedule. What’s more interesting is that most of these loan providers can release the amount as fast as one day as long as the requirements are complete and the request for loan has been approved.
