How To Apply For A VA Disability Loan

By Nancy Gardner


For one to qualify for a veterans affairs disability discharge, it has to be certified beyond doubt that the person cannot work and get income following an illness or even an injury in which recovery is not something that is expected to happen anytime soon unless a miracle happens. This article therefore explains the process of applying for a VA disability loan for such individual.

There are certain things which have to be confirmed for the applicant to receive the loan. The lending department should ascertain beyond doubt that the borrower is not able to secure employment as a result of the impairments sustained. The borrower also should be receiving payments from the social securing department or any other form of benefits. The payments should have gone on not more than seven years from the recent payment.

A physician needs to have certified that the person is permanently and totally disabled. The definition of this is inability to take part in substantial activity with gains because of medical or physical impairment which can result to unexpected death. It should have gone on for not less than five years.

The application forms should be completed online. The intent is to make sure that no one submits more than one copy. Also, there is a vendor on the site who helps the applicant identify other federal loaners he or she may have borrowed from and notify them that he or she is applying for such kind of a loan. This means that loan repayments on such loans will be put on hold for at least one hundred and twenty days for the application to be reviewed.

Failure to submit your application within those three months means that the loans will return to repayment status and if there is any interest which has accrued; it will have to be added onto the principal balance. However, if the application is submitted, the loans have to be held until the review process is over. Denials and approvals are mailed to the applicant within two months.

Unless the department of veteran affairs has certified that a person should be receiving the loans, the rest of the borrowers have to be constantly monitored for 3 years to ascertain that they still qualify to continue receiving such discharges.

It is crucial that the receiver of the discharge open and respond to the requests send periodically in regard to the loan. If not in a position, he or she can ask someone else to assist. Failure to do this means that the loan will be reinstated. The person will have to make the application again or else pay up the dues on other federal loans which were been put on hold.

If the borrower gets a new grant or federal loan, he or she will be denied the discharge and the other loans he or she had taken will no longer be on hold. You will have to send every holder a copy of the disability loan application form except for those who are permanently and totally disabled for proof that you have indeed applied for such a loan.
