Please refer to NBT Online Banker or your statement. To determine the current amount owed on your solar loan prior to ZIP Maturity date, please add together the following fields:

• Balance (This field represents the current interest bearing portion of your loan)
• Zero Interest Loan Balance (This field represents the Zero Interest Portion of your loan where interest has been deferred until you reach your maturity date.)

The sum of the two fields will represent the current amount owed on your solar loan prior to your Maturity Date.

eStatements are convenient, secure and manageable. By enrolling, you reduce the hassle of filing paper and your full statement will be available to you electronically, from home or anywhere. Additionally, you will receive an email notification when your new statement is ready. All statements dating back 18 months will remain online for viewing.

Your first payment will be due approximately 60 days after the first disbursement is paid to your installer. The exact due date can be located on your statement or in your NBT Online Banker account.
