Ordering Verification of Income and Tax Transcripts
Ordering Verification of Income and Tax Transcripts Job Aid
Citizens is happy to announce a partnership with Equifax to give customers the ability to place orders for Verification of Income (VOI) and tax transcripts, which are used for Day 1 Certainty income validation. This job aid has been created to assist customers with ordering a VOI and/or tax transcripts from the vendor site. It also includes instructions for submitting the documentation to Q.AUS and Desktop Underwriter (DU).
Note: A separate order must be placed for each employment/income source being validated. For a borrower who has a W-2 job and a Schedule C job listed on the 1003, both the VOI and tax transcripts must be ordered.
Accessing the Vendor Site 1. Register the loan with Citizens. This is required as the Citizens loan number will serve as the reference number for the order and ensure the information from Equifax is properly communicated to DU for validation. 2. To access the VOI/transcripts ordering page:
? Use the link on the right side of wholesale..
? Or, visit verifiers.
3. Click the Log In button. 4. Use Citizens-specific credentials to log into the site. The username should be the user's first initial and last name (or
similar) followed by "FABN".
? Access to VOI ordering will have been granted if the user is an existing Work Number client. ? Access to ordering tax transcripts will have been granted if the user is an existing Rapid Reporting client.

Submitting to Q.AUS/DU
After the VOI or transcripts have been completed by Equifax/The Work Number, complete the following steps:
1. Log into the Loan Pipeline through wholesale.. 2. Open Q.AUS for the subject loan. Findings must be submitted through Q.AUS to generate the Day 1 Certainty messages
related to the VOI. 3. Enter the income for the borrower as provided on the application or as calculated from the data provided on the VOI or
transcripts. 4. Review the findings; if necessary, adjust the income according to the DU calculations and resubmit for an updated
validation message. 5. Submit the loan to Citizens with the documentation requirements per the DU findings.
If the loan is submitted through Desktop Originator (DO) directly and not Q.AUS, the underwriter will eventually submit to DU through the Citizens internal systems which will then display any validation messaging.
