When you submit a Mortgage Financing application on IRESE, you will be asked to provide your current
annual income for the purpose of calculating and displaying your debt to income
ratio. The debt to income ratio is displayed on your application only to investors, and helps
investors gauge your ability to take on additional debt.
IRESE reserves the right to request documentation verifying your income at any
point in the process of Mortgage Financing application and origination.
Follow these guidelines when entering your current annual income on IRESE:
- Enter only income that you can verify using a recent pay stub (dated within the
last 30 days) and Form W-2. If you are retired, enter only income that you can
verify with a Social Security benefits letter or Form SSA-1099.
- If you cannot provide proof of your stated income with a recent pay stub and a
Form W-2, enter only the amount of your income which can be verified, or choose
the option when creating your application that reads "I cannot provide a pay stub
and Form W-2...". Your stated income will be displayed with your application, but
your debt to income ratio (DTI) will not be calculated.
Failure to provide an accurate and verifiable income may result in a range of
actions, including:
- Cancellation of your application
- Account suspension
- Account closure
