To effectively solve the problem confronted by applicants who make deposits in other cities but apply for the housing provident fund loans in Yichang, Yichang Municipal Provident Fund Management Center has officially launched an online service for them since the announcement.

　　It was understood that all nonresident applicants who repay for loans at Yichang Municipal Provident Fund Management Center only need to follow the WeChat subscription account of the Center and open its online self-service by facial recognition. Through the channel, the applicants can conduct queries about the basic information of loans, repayment details and repayment plans, and have access to the real-time information of loans. And they can also handle partial repayment or settle loans in advance, repay outstanding loans, print loan settlement certificates, and update their mobile phone numbers and change or reset business passwords on line instead of visiting the Center or cross-provincial off-site service counters in other provinces.

　　With the launch of this online service, the Center has achieved full coverage of online business service of more convenience and efficiency to the public. (Correspondent/Hu Tao)
