This background information helps us understand who we are serving. Providing the information is voluntary and it will not in any way affect our provision of services to you and your family. Please complete this information about the person who would use the purchased assistive technology.
I/We understand and agree that any information provided to or otherwise collected by Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF) or its wholly owned subsidiary, Appalachian Assistive Technology Loan Fund (AATLF) may be provided to one or more lenders (each, a “Lender”) in connection with my/our request for financing.
I/We authorize PATF to share any and all information with any Lender, and also authorize such Lender to share any and all information regarding me/us, any loan application and any loan (including, without limitation, loan status) referred to such Lender by PATF with PATF and its representatives.
I/We acknowledge and agree that each Lender, its agents, successors and assigns are third-party beneficiaries having the right to enforce the authorizations and certifications contained within this Application, and to exercise any rights and remedies to which they may be entitled at law or in equity.
As part of your application for an extension of credit (“loan”) through Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF) or its wholly owned subsidiary, Appalachian Assistive Technology Loan Fund (AATLF), an approved PATF Lender requests your authorization to pull your credit report, including, but not limited to, your personal credit profile and other information on file at one or more consumer reporting agencies (“credit report”). You understand you are providing “written instructions” to the approved PATF Lender under the Fair Credit Reporting Act which authorizes the Lender to procure your credit report from one or more consumer reporting agencies. You authorize the Lender to verify information in your application and agree that the Lender may contact third parties to verify such information. The Lender may use your credit report(s) to authenticate your identity, to make credit decisions, and for related purposes.
*IMPORTANT: If you have a Representative Payee and the Representative Payee is a family member, that person must be a co-applicant on the loan. By signing as a co-applicant, the rep-payee agrees that he/she is responsible for making the loan payments as he/she would make any payment on behalf of the beneficiary. If the applicant is no longer able to repay the loan the co-applicant would be responsible for paying the remainder of the loan balance.
I/We understand that this is a request for funds that I/We will need to repay. I/We authorize Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF) or its wholly owned subsidiary, Appalachian Assistive Technology Loan Fund (AATLF) to review all information provided and seek additional information from third parties required to verify the contents of this application. All information is true and correct and is provided to obtain the loan I/we am/are seeking. Any misrepresentation on any part of this application could result in rejection of this application or termination of the loan.
I/We certify that the information provided in this application is true and correct as of the date set forth opposite my/our signature on this application and acknowledge my/our understanding that any intentional or negligent misrepresentation of the information contained in this application may result in civil liability and/or criminal penalties including, but not limited to, fine or imprisonment or both under the provisions of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001 et seq., and liability for monetary damages to PATF, any other lender, its agents, successors, assigns, insurers, and any other person who may suffer any loss due to reliance upon any misrepresentation I/we made in this application or in any other manner.
I/We further understand that issuance of a loan does not imply any type of warranty by PATF or any other lender regarding the suitability, condition, merchantability or safety of the device or equipment that I/we purchase with the loan. I/We understand that I/we alone are responsible for selecting the devices or equipment to be financed. Therefore, I/WE CAN MAKE NO CLAIMS AGAINST PATF OR ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR AGENTS, AND I/WE EACH HEREBY RELEASE PATF AND ANY OTHER LENDER, AND ALL OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AGENTS, FROM AND AGAINST ALL LIABILITY, FOR DEFECTS IN ANY DEVICE OR EQUIPMENT OR ANY ACCIDENT OR INJURY RESULTING FROM ITS USE.
I/We hereby also authorize PATF or its wholly owned subsidiary AATLF and any lender to whom PATF may refer this application to disclose to PATF any information about any of us that the lender obtains or compiles that may be relevant to decisions PATF may make with respect to the application.
Why are we asking for this information? To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
