CHAPTER 3: APPLICATION PROCESSING - USDA Rural …
HB-1-3550 INTRODUCTION This CHAPTER describes the process of accepting and managing applications, up to the point that an applicant is selected for PROCESSING . This includes pre-qualifying potential applicants, taking and reviewing applications, and selecting applications for PROCESSING . SECTION 1: PRE-QUALIFICATION OVERVIEW Pre-qualification involves using unverified information to evaluate the likelihood that a potential applicant, someone who is interested in the program but has yet to submit an APPLICATION for assistance, would be program eligible. The results of pre-qualification are not binding and will not hinder the submission of an APPLICATION . A potential applicant with possible obstacles to program eligibility may submit an APPLICATION and a potential applicant who appears program eligible is not guaranteed that a loan will be made. Pre-qualification, which is supported but not required, serves as an opportunity to: Explain the program and the APPLICATION process; Determine the likelihood of eligibility based on income and other factors; Calculate the likely maximum loan amount; and Encourage the early completion of homeownership education for maximum benefit.
HB-1-3550 Paragraph 3.4 Homeowner Education Requirement In addition, the State Director may include homeowner education provided by USDA Cooperative Extension System staff. Online homeownership education courses offered and accessible on a national, non-state specific basis, will be reviewed and approved by the National Office.
