IRS Form 4506-t
IRS 4506-t or similar forms
‫‏‬
– Allows lenders to obtain transcripts of
the tax returns for borrowers for free.
– Once signed and dated by applicant
the form is good for 120 days.
– 4506 or 8821 may also be used in lieu
of the 4506-t but these forms typically
cost to execute.
– Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac policy
requires the form to be signed at
application and again at closing if it
was not executed.
– Lenders typically may use discretion
as far as executing it with the IRS but
Fannie Mae “highly recommends “ it.

Analyzing Reports Employment & Income
Income Trending
‫‏‬
– After the monthly year-to-date income amount is calculated, it must be compared to prior
years’ earnings using the borrower’s W-2’s or signed federal income tax returns (or a
standard Verification of Employment completed by the lender or third-party employment
verification vendor)
• If the trend in the amount of income is stable or increasing, the income amount should be averaged
• If the trend was declining, but has since stabilized and there is no reason to believe that the borrower
will not continue to be employed at the current level, the current, lower amount of variable income
must be used
• If the trend is declining, the income may not be stable. Additional analysis must be conducted to
determine if any variable income should be used, but in no instance may it be averaged over the
period when the declination occurred

Depreciation Factor
Automobile Depreciation
If a borrower claims a “standard mileage” deduction, the business
miles driven should be multiplied by the depreciation factor for the
appropriate year, and the calculated amount added to the borrower’s
cash flow.
If a borrower claims an “actual depreciation expense” deduction, the
amount the borrower claimed should be added to the borrower’s cash
flow.

2106 Expenses
Nonreimbursed Employee Expenses
W hen a borrower has nonreimbursed business expenses, such as classroom supplies,
uniforms, meals, gasoline, automobile insurance, and/or automobile taxes, the lender must
determine the borrower’s recurring monthly debt obligation for such expenses by developing a
24-month average of the expenses, using information from the borrower’s IRS Form 1040
including all schedules (Schedule A and IRS Form 2106) and net out any automobile
depreciation claimed on IRS Form 2106.
Consequently, when calculating the total debt-to-income ratio, the 24-month average for
nonreimbursed expenses should be subtracted from the borrower’s stable monthly income,
unless such expenses are automobile lease payments or automobile loan payments, in which
case they are to be considered part of the borrower’s recurring monthly debt obligations. If
there is not a 24-month history of such expenses, the lender should develop an annualized
monthly average for the expenses and add this calculated amount to the borrower’s monthly
debt obligations.

$3,000 is the maximum allowable write-off if married filing a joint return. Next
year the remaining $56101 will carry over.
Does losing money on an investment and writing that loss off on paper impact
the borrower’s cash flow? Does it impact their ability to make a mortgage
payment?

In this example the applicant has received $8,891 in benefits and $7,557 of it was taxable as indicated in
