Qualifying in San Bernardino: the Short List
Paperwork is minimal by design: proof you are 18, income you can document (stubs, benefit letters, bank deposits), and the account that will receive the deposit.

What California Law Guarantees You
Extensions: California does not permit rollovers, so the loan ends on its scheduled date. Cancellation: you may rescind the loan, End of next business day, at no cost.
