I can't wait to see what the foreclosure rate will be. Maybe the back thinks that will earn them even more money.

[Names Ash Housewares]

Swell. sigh.

[farlander]

Ok, so where do I apply ? How much can I refinance ?

I've conveniently forgotten I have a SSN.

If you are in the country illegally, don’t have a valid social security number and use a taxpayer ID number instead

People who are here illegally don't use TINs.

Citibank hold may mortgage and won't cancel my PMI without a new appraisal even though the equity is well above the threshold required to cancel PMI. Shall I become an illegal alien and try again?

[satchmodog9]

This all has the blessing of the federal government.

If any of these loans have federal guarantees involved, there is an equal protection violation.

What do i have to do to become an Illegal immigrant? What laws can i break and get all these benefits not afforded to law abiding citizens? My healthcare costs for me and my employees is about to cause me to close my business. Can we all become Illegals and quit paying our due? i know they would love to keep 100% of their gross. Me too!

[Burlem]

Why is it the right thing to do? The PC police are working overttime, I fear they will bring California to a third world status.

[Tulane]

Isn't this discrimination based on national origin?

[RegulatorCountry]

Scratch the surface of any goofy acronym that spells a word, and you'll find a bunch of Marxists scurrying busily beneath.

Who can afford to buy a home anywhere anymore? With the costs of insurance, energy, general all purpose taxes just doesn't make the cut anymore.

Not only this, but they can also receive complete health care at the cost of American taxpayers. I know of an example where a Mexican citizen was brought to San Diego from Culiacan for the express purpose of putting them in Grossmont Hospital. This man was in the hospital for a week, a myrad of tests were run, he was treated and released. EVERYTHING WAS PAID FOR. There is an actual program that pays for their treatment. Try getting this if you are a citizen...

"Illegal aliens in San Diego can purchase a home at below market interest rates, receive down payment assistance, and not have to take out mortgage insurance like other risky customers do."

The word "illegal" used to mean "against the law", "prohibited", "banned", "criminal", "forbidden".

How is it possible that this word has evolved into "welcome", "embraced", "favorable", desired".

I do not understand what our so-called leaders are thinking. This is crazy!

[BenLurkin]

This can't be for real!

[american spirit]

Could've sworn there is a federal law against "aiding and abetting" an illegal alien or are those laws just for the "little people"? Seems to me when a country has certain classes of people "above the law" then is that the definition of a "banana republic"?

So a non-profit org is providing counseling, free administrative prep work, and underwriting guarantees for, as they put it, people with low and 'nontraditional' sources of income. The bank is happy to grant them loans with more favorable rates and conditions since there is a guarantor assuming the risk.

Neither are the immigration police. And I'm not so sure I'd like to set the precedent of banks and private groups being saddled with the duties of actively investigating possible illegal activity beyond the mandatory reporting of financial data already required by law.

The banks have to abide by equal housing laws when determining the creditworthiness of an applicant. But a private advocacy group has every right to choose who they are willing to throw their money at without being required to share their funds in a nondiscriminatory fashion. Otherwise it would be like saying if you want to contribute to the Boy Scouts then you have to give some money to NAMBLA too.
