Announcement!

Per Circular 26-24-13 transmission of Full File Loan Review (FFLR) documents to VA is required for all loans selected for a FFLR on or after November 4, 2024. As of this date, LGY will no longer accept files received via manual upload to WebLGY Correspondence in response to an FFLR request. Failure to comply could result in a lender’s inability to make VA loans.

Lenders who use a third-party Loan Origination System (LOS) should engage their technology provider in discussions regarding implementation of a Loan Review integration and encourage them to collaborate with LGY. Lenders with a proprietary LOS or a desire to build their own integration should request a discussion with the Loan Origination Transformation (LOT) API Implementation Team by visiting the LGY Help Center and selecting ‘API Support’ as the product for which you are seeking support.

Origination Transformation Initiatives

Program Overview

VA’s Loan Guaranty Service (LGY) is undertaking an effort to transform its technology. This section will be your go-to resource for the latest developments on these transformation initiatives, that include the use of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). To learn more, see the key resources below, or visit the Transformation Hub.

API Circular

API documentation and information

VA will take a phased approach in deploying the various APIs to realize its full transformation strategy. The Loan Review API was released to production in January 2023, followed by Pre-Close API beta version testing availability as of September 2023, with subsequent releases of the Pre-Close API to cover multiple borrower purchase loans, Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loans (IRRRLs), and Cash-out Refinance loans. Other APIs will be released over the next couple of years.
