WVOE (Written Verification of Employment)

Our WVOE (Written Verification of Employment) Loan Program is perfect for salaried employees who want competitive terms, versatile loan structures, experienced support, and an accelerated closing process without the headache of tax returns and stacks of paperwork. Instead of paystubs, W-2s, and full returns, we verify your income through a simple employer-completed WVOE form, giving you a clean, flexible way to qualify—especially if your taxes are complex or your income has recently changed.

How it works

With the WVOE Loan Program, your income is documented through a Written Verification of Employment form (FNMA 1005 or similar) completed by your employer. That form confirms your position, length of employment, base pay, and any variable income such as bonuses or overtime. Instead of reviewing tax returns, W-2s, or paystubs, the lender relies on this employer-verified income and may use bank statements to confirm that deposits reasonably match what’s reported. From there, standard Non-QM guidelines are applied—looking at your credit (FICO from 620), assets, and property details—so you can qualify for a strong loan amount with flexible terms and a fast, streamlined closing.
