Salaried borrowers receive a consistent wage or salary from an employer in return for a service rendered and have no ownership or less than 25% ownership interest in the business. Compensation may be based on an hourly, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly basis. If hourly, the number of scheduled hours must be addressed. The income that is verified must be converted into a monthly dollar amount for use on the formal application (FNMA Form 1003). At the discretion of the underwriter, supplementary documentation of income may be requested.

The advantage of WVOE

For WVOE, the lender only need a WVOE form to calculate qualified income, no any other income documents needed. This should be the most attractive key point of WVOE. There is not any agency loans can do such program. Besides, different from other programs, borrowers doesn’t need to provide too many assets documents for this program. In general, this is a good program for salaried borrowers who do not qualify agency loans.

How to calculate the salary?

- Use the base salary (semi-monthly, bi-weekly, or hourly rate as supported by YTD) from WVOE.
Examples:
- Semi-monthly: Semi-monthly salary multiplied by 2 equals monthly income.
- Bi-weekly: Bi-weekly salary multiplied by 26 divided by 12 equals monthly income.
- Teacher paid for 9 months: Monthly salary multiplied by 9 months divided by 12 months equals monthly qualifying income.

Remind the employer to complete the WVOE form, then lender will proceed with the loan faster.
