      Hi Cerfy,

      Thanks for your question.

      You might want to take a look at our guide and compare lenders who offer loans to Centrelink recipients. You can also see schemes and programs available to people on benefits and lower incomes. You can use these loans to buy essential household items and you can borrow up to $3,000 for a low-interest rate. Please ensure to compare your options and meet the criteria and kindly read through the relevant product disclosure statement and terms and conditions to ensure that you got everything covered before you apply for the loan.

      I hope this information will be of use.

      Thanks,
      Elizabeth

      Hi Bo,

      Thanks for your question.

      There are a few lenders who consider applications for personal loans from people that have a temporary resident visa. Most lenders will need you to meet higher minimum income criteria or show extra credentials. Also, you may need to meet the details of your visa before you are approved to ensure that the terms of the personal loan do not exceed the amount of time left on your visa.

      You may compare personal loans for temporary residents. Before applying, please ensure that you meet all the eligibility criteria and read through the details of the needed requirements as well as the relevant Product Disclosure Statements/Terms and Conditions when comparing your options before making a decision on whether it is right for you.

      Cheers,
      Shirley
