How did your lender calculate...

your income?

For example, did they have you submit two years of tax returns and do an average?

Or did you submit 2 recent paystubs and use your current salary?

Re: How did your lender calculate...

lenders do different things. For one mortgage through Chase they wanted 2 years tax returns. One mortgage through Wells Fargo wanted most recent pay stubbs and last year's w2s.

Both wanted bank account statements from the last two months.

they requested our tax returns but our "income" was calculated by what we make today.

2 years ago my dh (the breadwinner) made 30K less than what he does today. 1 year ago he made 20K less than what he makes today. his "raise" was about 9 months ago when we aplied for the mortage, we supplied w-2 to prove the new income level.

requested paperwork (standard) included:
1 month's worth w-2
2 year tax returns
bank statements (they made copies of)
ids

we also submitted other non-standard things including a written paper on why we had a credit prob 3 years ago, things from his work etc.

thank you! that was the answer I was looking for. Im sure if you work on commission they want an average - but both FH and I are salaried and I make 2x as much as I did two years ago (i was in college, lol)

When we did our mortgage, I had to write a letter explaining that I was in college two years ago (at the time) and that was why my salary changed so much over the two year period.

Re: How did your lender calculate...

If you get W2s they took your last years salary
If your self employed or 1099 they averaged the past 3 years
