- For down payment assistance programs which have higher FICO minimums, the higher limits will apply.
- Effective immediately, no new submissions for FICOs < 640 will be accepted.
- All government with FICO scores below 640, locked on or before Tuesday, 3/31/20 must fund by Thursday, 4/30/20. No extensions will be given.
