  • Freddie Mac Form 91 Workbook
    • Addition of a “Wages (Paystubs/W-2)” row, which will display Qualifying Income from Paystubs/W-2 documents for borrower 1 and 2. The Other borrower is a catch all bucket for any Paystubs.W-2 that may not be match to one of the 2 borrowers in the application.
    • Dynamic Wage functionality.
      • If paystubs aren’t present in the file, wages will instead be taken from Line 1z of 1040 and displayed on the “Wages (Line 1z Form 1040)” line of the Summary Sheet. Users will be given a choice on whether to use wages from the 1040 or from paystubs. 

Important Note! LoanBeam will handle more than two borrowers for wage calculations, but any borrower outside of the primary and secondary are combined into the “Other Wage Borrowers’ Income” column. Use the “Wage Income” tab for detailed breakdown of income data by borrower.
