Eligible clients can access a WA NILS loan of between $200 and $1,500 which has no interest, no fees and no charges attached to it.
Clients with a Healthcare Card, Pension or Veteran’s Affairs Card can apply, with loans mostly being used for essential household items and services. Common examples for such loans include purchasing whitegoods, furniture, school uniforms, dental care, mobility scooters or paying for car repairs. This is not a cash loan facility and can’t be used for Bond, rent, holidays or bills.
There are some limits on loan amounts and loan items and this is explained fully on the WA NILS website.
