However my income and down payment amount was sufficient to get the loan. In addition, I've had multiple credit accounts and bank acconts with my ITIN since 2005. After I got my SSN, I slowly and strategically switched the ITIN to an SSN on my accounts. First begining with the bank accounts. No more than 1 switch per month. I also established brand new credit accounts using the new SSN.

In CA, minimum wage (or anywhere near) is not enough to get a home loan. Basic rule of thumb, the income of the person(s) applying for the loan should be ATLEAT 3X the total monthly payment. In my case that number includes city taxes, homeowners insurance, and utilities as well.
Congratulations and Thank You for sharing your story.

Also, when DAPA opens up, they will be eligible too. Spread the word!
Thanks for the reply, I began to build my credit 3 months ago, but decided to do it with my ITIN number, do you guys think this is a mistake?

There is a national lender that will lend with DACA if you qualify just like other home loan applicants. The minimum down payment is 3.5% of the sales price. For more information, check out: www.Facebook.com/DreamerFinancing

Most creditors will not report to the credit bureaus under an ITIN. Strongly recommend you do it with your Social Security number as soon as you get it......

I'm in GA, and lenders had no problems getting me pre-approved, since my income is not too high, I was approved for $125,000 with a credit score of 745. I had the option of a conventional(5% down) and FHA loan(3.5% down).
I'm close to the closing date.
Feels good

Just spoke with 2 more DREAMERS today that are eligible for a home loan. Yes, with your DACA work permit and SS number, you are eligible to apply for a government-insured home loan. I work for a direct lender that will lend in 44 states. You still need to meet the same requirements for credit and income, but residency is not a requirement. Message me if you want to know more. Also, when DAPA opens up, they will be eligible too. Spread the word! The minimum down payment is 3.5% of the sales price. For more information, check out: www.Facebook.com/DreamerFinancing

Don't be discouraged. It is available, now.

The problem in CA is that houses here are $450k for a decent location/pad.
