Tara is an eligible Veteran receiving VA compensation for a service-connected disability. She is using a VA-backed purchase loan to buy her home. What is the most accurate statement about the VA funding fee?

Correct Answer

D) She may be exempt from the fee because of her disability-compensation status

VA guidance states that certain borrowers, including those receiving VA compensation for a service-connected disability, do not have to pay the VA funding fee. The fee is not universal, and exemption status matters.

Answer Options
A
She must pay it because every VA borrower owes the fee without exception
B
She must pay it monthly as a substitute for mortgage insurance
C
She can avoid it only by converting the transaction to an FHA loan
D
She may be exempt from the fee because of her disability-compensation status
