Unfortunately, getting a personal loan during a consumer proposal is difficult. A consumer proposal is a process for people struggling with existing debt. It is, therefore, extremely damaging to one’s credit score. After this, traditional lenders like banks and credit unions are unlikely to approve a personal loan. You can work with your Licensed Insolvency Trustee to evaluate your ability to pay both your consumer proposal payments and potential loan payments.  Watch out! Alternative lenders may be more willing to give a personal loan, but be mindful of the terms. They may be predatory.
