This guide covers no-tax returns mortgages. We will discuss W2 income mortgages and no-doc mortgage loans for self-employed borrowers. Income is the most important factor in qualifying for a mortgage. Borrowers can have the most perfect in the world, but with no qualified income documentation or declared low income, borrowers may not qualify. Mortgage Underwriters require the following:

  • Two years of tax returns
  • 2-year W-2s
  • 2-year 1099’s if applicable
  • 60 days of bank statements to see verified funds for the down payment or closing costs
  • The above docs are required to see whether or not they meet the required debt-to-income ratios in qualifying for a mortgage

Adjusted Gross Income As Qualified Income

Unreimbursed expenses can be deal killers. Lenders go by adjusted gross income on the borrower’s tax returns. Self-employed borrowers need to provide 2-years of tax returns. Self Employed Borrowers who are business owners or 1099 wage earners must provide the lender with two years’ tax returns and 2-year 1099 income. Tax returns are required for self-employed borrowers. This is because most self-employed borrowers write off expenses on their tax returns.

Mortgage underwriters calculate income by adjusting gross income after all deductions. They take the 24-month average of the adjusted gross income of self-employed borrowers.

However, the average of the two years is only averaged if the adjusted gross income is the same or is higher in the most recent year. If the adjusted gross income is lower than the most recent year, the income of the lower year will be used. The two-year adjusted gross income average will not be used in cases of declining income.

How Mortgage Underwriters View Declining Income

If the underwriter sees that the adjusted gross income has been declining and the likelihood is likely to decline, then the income cannot be used. The borrower would need to go to FHA and get a non-occupant co-borrower to qualify for the mortgage loan. Or they may be eligible for our bank statement loan program for self-employed borrowers. Tax Returns are not required with our bank statement mortgage loan program for self-employed borrowers.

1099 Wage Earners Versus W2 Income Only No Tax Returns Mortgage

Mortgage borrowers who are 1099 wage earners, such as car salesmen, realtors, or other sales workers lenders, will require two years of 1099’s and two years of tax returns. Tax returns are required to see how much the borrower has written off on their tax returns. The gross adjusted income will be used to calculate income. If the two years’ 1099’s are similar, a 24-month average will be used to calculate monthly gross income.

If AUS does not condition tax returns, mortgage underwriters do not want loan officers to provide income tax returns. W2 Income Wage earners do not normally have to provide income tax returns. Self-employed borrowers or borrowers with income properties DO have to provide income tax returns.

Type Of Wage Earners Determine Tax Return Requirements

Self-employed borrowers and 1099 wage earners must provide lenders two years of income tax returns. Mortgage Underwriters will also verify the income tax returns of borrowers with the Internal Revenue Service using IRS Form 4506-T. Borrowers utilizing many income deductions from their tax returns will have difficulty qualifying for a mortgage. This is due to tax filer’s gross income being decreased by tax filers deductions. This lowers the number of money borrowers can qualify for a loan.

Bank Statement Loans With No Income Tax Returns Required For Self-Employed Borrowers

Self-employed people and business owners always had issues qualifying for a mortgage. If you are not a W2 wage earner and are a 1099 wage earner, self-employed, or own a business, you are able to take substantial unreimbursed expense deductions from your income tax returns. Lenders will go with adjusted gross income which is the net income after deductions.

There are many instances where self-employed folks can have zero or negative income after deductions. Borrowers with little to no adjusted gross income cannot qualify for a mortgage. Non-QM bank statement loans for self-employed borrowers solve this problem. If you are self-employed or own a business, you will be eligible for a 12 or 24 months bank statement loan. Only deposits on bank statements are used to calculate income. Withdrawals do not matter. Gustan Cho Associates Mortgage Group offers Bank Statement Mortgage Loans For Self Employed Borrowers where no tax returns are required.
