Payday Loans with Government Benefits


In Canada, payday loans for those on government benefits are provided to Canadians who receive income through a program. These quick cash advances help you pay off expenses and afford things like food or medical bills before they become emergencies, so an unexpected financial burden doesn’t put added stress onto the circumstances.

While not every lender will approve loans based on government benefits, Loan Express recognizes Pension, Disability, and most other Government benefits paid regularly as income eligible for a payday advance. 

Canadians choose Loan Express because it is more convenient, easy, has fast approval, and has more flexible requirements than other types of financial help. 

Payday loans should be available to everyone, especially those who need money quickly. Here’s how it works: whether you’re on government benefits or have bad credit and low income, there is a chance for eligibility for a loan amount up to $1,500!

Types of Loans for the People on Benefits

There are different payday loans for Canadians who are on benefits and need emergency cash. Note that it is completely up to the lender to determine which kind of benefit qualifies as established income. 

Typical loans for Canadians on government benefits include: 

  • Payday Loans for Unemployed on Benefits in Canada
  • Payday Loans for Disability Income in Canada
  • Payday Loans that Accept Child Tax
  • CPP Payday Loans
  • AISH Payday Loans
  • ODSP Payday Loans

Payday Loans for Unemployed on Benefits in Canada

Loan Express lends on CTC, CPP, Pension, Disability, Payroll and many other guaranteed incomes. Loan Express will lend on EI if you have already paid back loans with us. We do not approve new loan applications on EI.

Payday Loans for Disability Income in Canada

The federal government and private lenders alike understand that dealing with the long-term effects of disabilities can be challenging. If you’re receiving assistance due to long-term injuries, then applying for a cash advance on your disability benefits could help get things back on track. 

Payday Loans That Accept Child Tax

If you have children and receive the child tax benefit, the monthly payments can be used as an established income to apply for a payday loan from Loan Express.

Payday Loans for CPP

The Canadian Pension Plan, also referred to as CPP, qualifies as a monthly income for borrowers. This is especially beneficial for those who are no longer working and need a quick loan. 

Payday Loans for ODSP

The Ontario Disability Support Program, also referred to as ODSP, qualifies as a guaranteed source of income with Loan Express. 

Payday Loans for AISH

The Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped, also known as AISH, can be used to get a payday loan. Getting the money you need is fast and easy with Loan Express!
