ITIN Loans

An ITIN Loan is a mortgage designed for non-U.S. citizens, immigrants, and individuals without a Social Security Number (SSN) who want to buy a home in the U.S. Instead of an SSN, borrowers use an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to apply for financing. These loans provide flexible qualification requirements and allow more people to achieve homeownership. Jack Jacobs specializes in helping ITIN borrowers secure home loans with competitive rates and tailored solutions.

To qualify for an ITIN Loan, borrowers must have:

• A valid ITIN issued by the IRS
• A steady source of income (employment or self-employment)
• U.S. tax returns for at least the past two years
• A down payment (typically 10-20%)
• A credit history (U.S. or foreign) or alternative credit verification

Jack Jacobs helps ITIN borrowers navigate the application process and secure financing that fits their needs.

Yes! ITIN Loans are great for self-employed borrowers who don’t have W-2 income. Instead of traditional employment verification, lenders may accept bank statements, profit and loss statements, or tax returns to verify income. If you’re a business owner, freelancer, or independent contractor, Jack Jacobs can help you qualify for a mortgage with flexible documentation requirements.

Most lenders require a 10-20% down payment, though some lenders offer lower down payment options for well-qualified borrowers. A larger down payment may help secure better interest rates and loan terms. Jack Jacobs will guide you through your options and help you find the most affordable solution.

ITIN Loans do not require a traditional U.S. credit score, but lenders may still evaluate credit history. If you don’t have a U.S. credit report, lenders can use alternative credit verification, such as:

• Rental payment history
• Utility bills or cell phone payments
• Foreign credit reports

Jack Jacobs will help ITIN borrowers establish or verify credit history to improve their chances of approval.

Most ITIN Loans are designed for primary residences, meaning borrowers must live in the home they purchase. However, some lenders may allow ITIN financing for second homes or investment properties. Jack Jacobs will help you explore available mortgage options based on your goals.

ITIN Loans may have slightly higher interest rates than conventional loans since they are considered non-traditional mortgages. However, borrowers with strong credit, stable income, and a larger down payment may qualify for competitive rates. Jack Jacobs works with lenders who offer affordable ITIN Loan programs tailored to each borrower’s financial profile.

Yes! ITIN borrowers can refinance their mortgage to lower their interest rate, reduce monthly payments, or access home equity. If you’ve built equity in your home, you may qualify for a cash-out refinance to fund renovations, consolidate debt, or cover major expenses. Jack Jacobs will help you find the best refinancing solution for your needs.

Unlike conventional loans that require a Social Security Number and strict credit criteria, ITIN Loans allow alternative credit verification and flexible documentation. ITIN borrowers can qualify without U.S. citizenship or permanent residency and use bank statements, rental history, or tax returns to prove income. Jack Jacobs helps ITIN borrowers find the best loan program to fit their unique financial situation.

Yes! Many lenders allow alternative credit verification, meaning borrowers can provide proof of on-time rental payments, utility bills, or foreign credit reports instead of a traditional credit score. Jack Jacobs will help you navigate the credit verification process to improve your chances of approval.

ITIN Loans may require private mortgage insurance (PMI) if the down payment is less than 20%, just like conventional loans. However, some lenders offer ITIN mortgage programs with no PMI, depending on the borrower’s qualifications. Jack Jacobs will help you compare options and find the most cost-effective mortgage solution.

The ITIN Loan process usually takes 30-45 days, depending on the lender, appraisal process, and documentation review. Providing complete and accurate financial documents upfront can help speed up approval. Jack Jacobs works with lenders who streamline the process to ensure a smooth closing experience.

Yes! ITIN Loans are specifically designed for non-U.S. citizens and individuals without a Green Card or visa.

While requirements vary by lender, ITIN Loans typically require:
