Bill > AB1840

This bill aims to expand eligibility for the Home Purchase Assistance Program, a California program that helps low- and moderate-income home buyers purchase owner-occupied homes. The bill specifies that applicants who meet all other program requirements shall not be disqualified solely based on their immigration status. This means that the California Housing Finance Agency, which administers the program, cannot deny loans to applicants who are otherwise eligible under federal and state law solely based on their immigration status. The bill also declares that this provision is a state law within the meaning of federal law, which allows states to provide public benefits to certain categories of immigrants.
