<div>Approximately 26,000 producers submit a direct loan application to the FSA annually, but there is a high rate of incomplete or withdrawn applications, due in part to a challenging and lengthy paper-based application process. Coupled with the Loan Assistance Tool released in October 2022, the simplified application will provide all loan applicants access to information regarding the application process and assist them with gathering the correct documents before they begin the process. This new application will help farmers and ranchers submit complete loan applications and reduce the number of incomplete, rejected, or withdrawn applications.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>loan application</div><div></div><div>Download Zip: https://t.co/AlozjlB5rA </div><div></div><div></div><div>America's next generation of farmers and ranchers are supported through FSA's "Beginning Farmer" direct and guaranteed loan programs. Farm Ownership loans can provide access to land and capital. Operating loans can assist beginning farmers in becoming prosperous and competitive by helping to pay normal operating or family living expenses; open doors to new markets and marketing opportunities; assist with diversifying operations; and so much more. Through the Microloan program, beginning farmers and ranchers have an important source of financial assistance during the start-up years.</div><div></div><div></div><div>While FSA is fully committed to all farmers and ranchers, there is a special focus on the particular credit needs of farmers and ranchers who are in their first 10 years of operation. Each year, FSA targets a portion of its lending by setting aside a portion of all loan funds for financing beginning farmer and rancher operations. With the single exception of the Direct Farm Ownership Down Payment Loan, the Beginning Farmer classification is not related to a type of loan program; it references a specific, targeted funding source.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Let's say the average size farm for "ABC County" is 94 acres. 30 percent of the average, rounded to the nearest tenth, is 28.2 acres. So, to meet the beginning farmer requirement, a loan applicant may not own more than 28.2 acres when the loan application is submitted.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>If the farm crosses county lines and is located in more than 1 county, "ABC County" and "XYZ County," FSA uses the average size farm data for the county where the loan applicant lives. If the loan applicant's house is not located on the farm, then the Agency looks to the data for the county in which the largest portion of the farm is located.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Being a beginning farmer is one of the requirements to be eligible for the Direct Farm Ownership Down Payment Loan. Down Payment loan funds may be used only to partially finance the purchase of a family farm. Loan applicants must contribute a minimum down payment of 5 percent of the purchase price of the farm and the Agency will finance 45 percent to a maximum loan amount of $300,150. The balance of the purchase price not covered by the down payment loan and the loan applicant's down payment may be financed by a commercial lender (XLS, 275KB), private lender, a cooperative, or the seller.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Learn how to request a VA home loan Certificate of Eligibility (COE). This is the first step in getting a VA-backed home loan or Native American Direct Loan. It confirms for your lender that you qualify for the VA home loan benefit. Then, choose your loan type and learn about the rest of the loan application process.</div><div></div><div></div><div>To request a COE by mail, fill out a Request for a Certificate of Eligibility (VA Form 26-1880) and mail it to the address for your regional loan center. You can find the address on the last page of the form. Please note that mail requests may take longer than requesting a COE online or through your lender.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Lien Recording Fee - the amount charged by the recording office, which will increase from time to time as the amount charged by the recording office increases. As of July 27, 2023, this amount is $18.54. This fee is charged only on loans secured by an automobile.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Request for Title Fee - the amount charged by the recording office, which will increase from time to time as the amount charged by the recording office increases. As of July 1, 2019, this amount is $12.36. This fee is charged only on loans secured by an automobile, when a new certificate of title is issued in connection with the loan, such as in the case of an automobile purchase.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Credit Life Insurance: For loan terms up to and including 63 months, the charges are based on gross coverage. The initial amount of coverage is based on the initial indebtedness (the sum of the total monthly payments). The following sample rates, used to determine the premium, are quoted as the rate per $100 of gross coverage and based on an example of 12 months of coverage. Other loan terms may change the premium cost which is disclosed on the Loan documents and Insurance Certificate.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Credit Disability Insurance: The charges are based on the sum of the total monthly payments (Initial Indebtedness), number of months of coverage, and the applicable premium rate provided below. The following sample rates, used to determine the premium, are quoted as the rate per $100 of Initial Indebtedness and based on an example of 12 months of coverage. Other loan terms may change the premium cost which is disclosed on the Loan documents and Insurance Certificate.</div><div></div><div></div><div>A consumer report may be requested in connection with the processing of your application for credit. Upon request, you will be informed whether or not a consumer report was requested and, if such report was requested, informed of the name and address of the consumer reporting agency that furnished the report. Subsequent consumer reports may be requested or utilized in connection with an update, renewal, or extension of the credit.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Not all applicants will qualify for larger loan amounts or most favorable loan terms. Larger loan amounts require a first lien on a motor vehicle no more than ten years old, that meets our value requirements, titled in your name with valid insurance. Loan approval and actual loan terms depend on your state of residence and your ability to meet our credit standards (including a responsible credit history, sufficient income after monthly expenses, and availability of collateral). APRs are generally higher on loans not secured by a vehicle. Highly-qualified applicants may be offered higher loan amounts and/or lower APRs than those shown above. Active duty military, their spouse or dependents covered by the Military Lending Act may not pledge any vehicle as collateral.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Borrowers in these states are subject to these minimum loan sizes: Alabama: $2,100. California: $3,000. Georgia: $3,100. North Dakota: $2,000. Ohio: $2,000.
