How borrowing works locally

A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit.

A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision. An application usually asks for identification, income evidence, banking details and a statement of obligations.

The Quebec rules that apply

Licensing for consumer credit in Quebec sits with the province or territory, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada maintains the public list of provincial and territorial regulators.

Quebec does not license payday lending, a fact the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) record when it lists the provinces that regulate the product.
