  1. An expanded range of options will now appear in the Income Verification Type when shopping for non-QM programs:
    • 1 Year Alt Documentation
    • 2 Year Alt Documentation
    • Asset Related
    • Business Bank Statement: 1 Mo
    • Business Bank Statement: 3 Mos
    • Business Bank Statement: 6 Mos

  3. Expanded Guidelines - this section appears when Non-QM is selected and contains important information from the primary borrower's credit report about their history of late mortgage payments, bankruptcies, and other housing events in order to refine the search results. For more details on the fields contained in the Expanded Guidelines section, see below. The fields in this section can be edited during pricing for interview purposes, but they will be overwritten by the results of the credit report.
