Digital Verification of Employment (DVOE)
How does a DVOE differ from a standard 10-day pre-closing VOE?
A Digital Verification of Employment (DVOE) serves the same critical function as a standard 10-day VOE—confirming a borrower’s current employment status prior to closing—but utilizes asset-based data rather than payroll data.
Instead of logging into a payroll provider or contacting an employer, a DVOE audits the borrower’s bank statements to identify recurring payroll deposits.
Key Advantages for Lenders:
- Efficiency: Automates the pre-closing check by leveraging existing asset data.
- Reliability: Uses verified bank transaction history to confirm consistent income flow.
- Reduced Friction: Eliminates the need for manual HR outreach or borrower-provided paystubs in the final days of the loan process.
