The program offers eligible impacted customers several forms of assistance, including refunds on overdraft fees, non-TD ATM fees, and monthly maintenance charges. The bank, which has raised its dividend for 15 consecutive years and maintains a healthy 3.78% dividend yield, will also waive early withdrawal penalties on certificates of deposit for those needing access to their funds during this period.

Commercial and small business clients affected by the shutdown may also be eligible for fee refunds on loans or lines of credit, according to the bank’s statement.

"Clients with questions can visit a TD Bank Store or call TD’s 24/7 live phone support to learn more about the TD Cares program and any restrictions or conditions that may apply," the bank stated in its press release.
