Newsom to Decide on Home-Loan Help for Undocumented Immigrants in California

California lawmakers have sent a bill to Governor Gavin Newsom’s desk that would expand a state-backed down payment assistance program to undocumented immigrants who are looking to buy a home.
If Newsom signs the bill, qualified applicants would be eligible regardless of their immigration status. The program, called California Dream for All, took effect last year to help first-generation home buyers get interest-free loans of as much as 20% of a home’s value in one of the country’s priciest states for real estate.
