Has anyone been able to get a car loan or lease as a temp resident here in Canada? We are here under a work permit (in process of getting perm residency) and will be in need of a new car soon as we are turning in our lease back in the USA in a few months.

I have read about a loan program through Scotiabank - but not sure if that is only for new immigrants with PR status and if they do give loans, perhaps they only give loans for the remainder of your work permit?

Maybe leasing a car is easier as a temporary resident??

Thoughts?

I believe the program with scotiabank is for PR residents, we are with it too.
