General Requirements: 

Lenders usually look for a minimum of 2 years of self-employment history or employment history in the same field. Proof for minimum of 2 years employment history for self-employed borrowers may be accomplished by obtaining a typed letter from a accountant/CPA on their company letterhead to get verification of the borrowers self employment. If an accountant is not available, two years of business license or confirmation from 3 disinterested business associates may be required. Your ability to qualify for the loan is based on the income stated on the application. The income must be in line with your occupation.

Credit & Reserves: 

Borrowers generally need credit FICO scores over 720, with the mortgage not over 30 days past due in the last 12 months.  Loan Programs offered on 3, 5, & 7 year ARM's. The borrower should have a minimum of 6 to 12 months of the mortgage payment in "personal" liquid cash reserves on a purchase or refinance for the best rate. At times, lenders may request you to have 10% to 20% of stated income in Liquid Cash Reserves on large jumbo loans. Reserves can be from checking, savings, cash, CD's, money market accounts, stocks, bonds, IRA's, 401k's, and Keogh accounts.

On cash out refinances, reserves can come from the loan proceeds and the credit score may need to be higher. The other programs (30 yr and 15 yr fixed)  require less reserves.  

NOTE: These terms are changing frequently to even stricter guidelines and may not be available at all. Currently, stated income loans are being offered by very few mortgage companies and private brokers. It just takes some digging around so understand it is a scarce program.
