According to NIA, applicants can submit an application to rent laptops and tablets under this program as long as they have new immigrant status. There is no data cap and just one of the two devices—a laptop or tablet—can be used to apply. The tablet also has a 4G mobile Internet access feature. The time frame for applications is July 13 through November 30. The chance is open to new immigrants, so seize the opportunity. National Immigration Agency further announced that "vulnerable new immigrant families" would be given precedence when it came to borrowing requirements.
