Income composition
At least $1,000 a month from a qualifying source
Co-signer
May waive the income requirement
Where it lends

What you need to apply

  • Valid government issued ID
  • Proof of income
  • Proof of address
  • A void cheque or pre-authorized debit form
  • For a secured loan, your annual mortgage statement
  • For a secured loan, your property tax statement

How easyfinancial decides

The income test counts sources, not just totals

The qualifying list runs to employment, self-employment, disability benefits and pension income, and at least $1,000 a month has to come from it. Money from outside the list can top up the total, but it cannot carry the application on its own.

A co-signer changes the arithmetic

With a co-signer present the income requirement may be waived altogether. Eligible applicants who add a co-applicant also receive a two percent rate reduction, which is the only published discount on the product.

Trying to build my credit

Well like many others, I'm trying to rebuild my credit and don't have the best score about 545. I got a quick approval like they stated for the amount I asked. They even found equity in my beater commuter car, which was a pleasant surprise.

Love easy financial

It was frustrating going back and fourth with getting documents set for the pre approved loan but once I got it I was super ecstatic. Easy financial gave me a second chance at bettering my creditscore when no other finance company would help me with a loan. I was in bad financial need and easy financial pulled through. Thank you easy financial you guys helped me out greatly. Your staff also were a great help
