After a 30 day wait in their pipeline. TBW suspended my FHA submission due to 60 and 90 day lates on some student loans almost a year ago. These student loans have been up to date and on time since 11/07. What gives? Are FHA underwriters always so harsh on student loan payments? This has me a little steamed.
48% LTV 28% DTI 0x30 on mtg no lates on anything since 11/07
Should I try VA? |

| Maybe they are just catching up to the higher underwriting standards of the non-FHA world? Not a moment too soon in my opinion. |

This TBW underwriter wants me to get proof that the credit bureau was inaccurrate in its reporting. It wasn't. They were late. I heard FHA loan can be strict with student loans and other government related issues.
What can I do to satisfy this condition with the underwriter? |

Based on your past experiences, I'd say fly to the TBW location, and pick up some knee pads on the way. :P
Sorry didn't want to do it, but you set yourself up for that one! It's Friday, enjoy the laughs!

Was this a manual underwrite or an accept through total score card? What FICO / LTV?
Give the rest of the scenario |

I got two BS stips yesterday.
LOE, why he lives in Alabama and work in Kansas?
BK 11/2004, showing on credit, discharged, she wants a copy of the BK papers and discharge.
This underwriting must be 50+ years old, I have not had either of these for a few years now.
It was approve/eligible |

It was a Refer. She has a 510 Fico. Her husband who was the breadwinner was killed serving our country in Iraq. This threw her personal and financial world into chaos and her credit suffered as a result. She is now receiving survivor benefits for herself and her two young daughters. She has her bills back under control. I had her write up a detailed and heartfelt LOE explaining her situation. Her husband gave the ultimate sacrifice to our country. You would think an FHA lender could give a little bit back.

On a serious note, that sounds like a really tough battle.
VA may be the best route to go... |

| I would try VA. Get a strong letter of explanation. Call the UW to ask if it is possible. Loss of income must certainly play into this situation. Where is the property? |

YOU CANNOT EVER HAVE ANY LATES AFTER A BK AND GET FHA FINANCING! THATS THE LAW OF THE LAND. IT SHOWS A LACK OF FINANCIAL DISCIPLE AFTER ONE CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT.

MisterVA would know better than I on this, but I thought most VA lenders also have minimum credits scores of 550 or higher.

You may want to try the VA, if you cannot get them to help have the borrower call thier congressman, this widow should not have to suffer more than she already has.

Huh? I don't see how. He said it was a Refer, so I think it was run.

| Maybe you can take it to someone like Ideal Mortgage Brokers and Streamline it later on. No? |

I was told that if it won't go FHA, won't happen VA either. Not true? |

A rule of thumb is that if you have a REFER, especially with that low of a score, NO lates in the past 12 months.
It's a compelling and saddening story about her husband, but thats not in the guidelines anywhere. |

| I am having trouble seeing where a 1x60 and a 1x90 put them at a 510 credit score. There must be something else. I have closed rougher credit coming in at the mid 500's. |

tbw is the last company i'd send a loan to unless it was spot less, because they seem to like to pick things apart and take their sweet time doing it....
if her hubby was killed in the line of duty.... she should be receiving compensation from DOD and from the SGLI.... six figure payments each.... can't this help her? |
