2008 Updated Veterans Compensation Tables

2008 Veterans Compensation Tables

Auunally the Department of Veteran Affairs adjust the compensation tables for benefits paid to veterans with service-connected disabilities. You can use these tables with respect to the Dependent status of a veteran to determine the monthly benefit for loan qualification. This is a non-taxable benefit and may be grossed up to a higher amount based on the specific lender’s underwriting guidelines. The underwriter will need a copy of the most current award letter. Award letters are usually mailed in mid January. If you are using this income to qualify a veteran later in the year and the veteran has misplaced their award letter but have direct deposit, you can usually document the income source with a successive series of bank statements as a paper trail. The Department of Veteran Affairs will issue a replacement award letter, but I have seen them take as long as 90 days as there is usually long backlog of correspondence.

A lot of veterans are returning from military service and offer a large population of homebuyers for realty professionals familiar with VA financing and underwriting. This could be a potentially niche’ market in some areas with high concentrations of veterans.
