Frequently Asked Questions

How do retirees document retirement income for mortgage applications?

Retirees qualifying for mortgages on retirement income need to document consistent monthly distributions. Export 24 months of bank statements to Excel to show Social Security, pension, and IRA distribution deposit history. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac allow retirement account distributions as qualifying income if distributions are expected to continue for at least 3 years beyond the mortgage maturity date (or if the retirement account balance, depleted at current distribution rate, will last at least 3 years). An asset depletion calculation may allow higher qualifying income from a large IRA balance even if current distributions are modest.

How do I document a 401k rollover for IRS purposes using bank statements?

The IRS 60-day rollover rule requires that a 401k distribution be deposited into a qualifying IRA within 60 days to avoid income taxes and penalties. Export your bank statement to Excel to show: (1) the 401k distribution deposit date in your checking account (if an indirect rollover), and (2) the IRA contribution date showing it was completed within 60 days. This bank statement evidence supports your tax return's rollover disclosure and provides documentation if the IRS ever questions the rollover timing. For direct rollovers (custodian-to-custodian), your IRA custodian confirmation letter is primary — bank statements may not even show the transaction if it was direct.
