    Is there a time limit on the 200 a week loan they give you whenyou are PSD? I've been towed twice which ate a week and then trainer took 5 days hometime.

    During PSD there is supposed to be zero home time. I suggest you call Stan Kasterke.

    You only get the loan for 4 weeks max, and you have to save $100 for your CDL at the DMV.

    If you didn't have the money available for the CDL when you passed the test they used to advance you the money for it. I don't remember if it was added on to the loan or if it was treated as an advance off your first check.

    And just so there is no confusion on this, this is for the actual CDL you get after passing your road test that they would do this for, NOT the CDL permit you have to get (if you don't have one from your home state) when you first arrive.

    Not always a no on the hometime, They have been more lenient since there are so many students. The instructors don't want to stay out that long without getting home, My last two students both got to go home, One before thanksgiving and the the current one for thanksgiving.
