How are deferred down payments treated under Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z?
A deferred downpayment occurs when the customer commits to a larger dollar amount than the
unencumbered funds he is able to provide at the time the request for credit is submitted to a
finance source. (Also referred to as a "hold-check")
(The customer tenders $3,000 in cash at the time the credit application is completed and sent to a
funding source. However, the customer promises to provide another $2,000 in cash within five
days. The request for credit sent to the funding source indicates a downpayment of $5,000.)
· The total amount of the deferred downpayment must be paid in full before the second otherwise
regularly scheduled payment. (Before that second direct withdrawal is taken from the customer's
bank account, 100% of the deferred amounts must have been paid.0
· A finance charge cannot be imposed on the deferred amount. · The deferred amount cannot be
included in the amount financed - it must be recorded (included in) the recorded downpayment
· With the exception of California, the deferred downpayment
NOTE:
If the customer provides one or more check to be included in the total amount of money recorded
as the downpayment (hold-checks) all of the checks have to be dated as of the date of the
transaction. You cannot collect "post-dated" checks.

term. If the customer terminates the agreement during the repayment term, he will receive a
refund of the unearned premium.
In a simple interest- or interest-bearing installment sale agreement, the finance charge is
computed daily and paid monthly throughout the term of the agreement. If the customer pays-off
the vehicle before the scheduled end of the contract there is unearned finance charge money to
refund, but it has been each month the contract has been in force. There is no refund of the
unearned finance chargE
