    How to Get a VA Loan (4-Step Process)

    Typically speaking, there are four steps required in the VA Loan eligibility process:

    1. Do your VA Loan homework (review the information above).
    2. Contact a VA-approved lender to start the application.
    3. Obtain your COE (through a lender or by yourself).
    4. Supplement all necessary documentation to the lender, including:
    • W2s
    • Tax Returns
    • Recent Bank Statements
    • Paystubs / Income Statements

    After these four steps have been completed, your VA loan lender will review all information and contact you upon decision.
