You are entirely correct. On a stated income loan on a standard 1003 application, (the industry standard for conforming, non conforming, FHA, VA etc.) the income is entered into the exact same spot as verified income.

In most cases I think the stated number is played with until the borrower qualifies. Of course the loan officer knows what it takes to qualify so they have a large input into what ever figure is used.

You still list the source as you say but the figure for income on a stated loan I would say rarely is what the client makes. I am not in sales anymore. I tell the loan officers I work for they better have a figure they want to use because it is not going to be my BUTT because I ratcheted up the income to "fit". So once I see it I don't like to "play" with the number even though in my mind the numbers are patently false.
