Auto loan question (Immigration status related question)

Anonymous — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 01:44:17 GMT

Hi, guys.

I finally, have my own Fico score! Mine is Trans - 703, Eq - 689, Ex - 690.

My credit AAoA is about 6months and oldest is 8 months.

I have no bad information in my credit, it is just short.

+ I am here in the U.S. with work permit.

I heard traditional large banks will not extend loan to me because of my immigration status. Do you guys think I will have a chance at DCU? I am not sure DCU will check immigration status.

I have 30k yearly income and my ssn is about 5 years old.

Please advice.

Thank you guys!

I am no expert on immigration and auto loans but I am sure someone here is, I would add immigration question to the title of your post to attract better responses. Congrats on getting credit established, you have a perfectly clean report so work hard to keep it that way and life will be much easier. I am 100% sure there are lenders who will help you out, I am sure someone will chime in soon to help you out on where to look.

US citizens and Green card holders are considered US persons, where they get approved for loans easily. Since you have a work permit only, you won't be considered a US person and banks would consider that. By banks, I mean the ones that you have a saving/checking account with them. I wonder what is your eligibility to apply for a GC?

And to answer your post, I would suggest applying with Capital One auto loan since it is a soft pull and they would let you know the results almost immediately. Sometime, they take one day to process the application, and might ask for a scanned copy of your income payslip.

Which banks do you have credit cards with? I would suggest to try them out since they gave you a CC

strange of Capital One, oh well...

At this point, I would say to try with different places until you score an acceptable loan, try DCU. I wouldn't encourage you to apply via a dealer until at least you have a preapproval from a bank or CU as your backup.
