This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

To take part in manual underwriting, you'll need to provide the following information:

  • History of regular housing and other payments to creditors, such as cellphone providers, utility companies and landlords
  • Bank account statements to demonstrate cash savings
  • Two years' worth of tax returns
  • Proof of employment, such as a verification letter from your employer, that applies to the previous two years
  • Prior 30 days' worth of pay stubs
  • Verification of self-employment income, such as tax and other financial documentation
  • Financial and credit information for a cosigner with good credit, if you have one, which could help strengthen your application

That sounds hella invasive. The banks get nowhere near as much info here unless you use a bank you already have an account in, in which case they have access to that account's information. Otherwise standard is 6 months of data.
