Is a Certificate of Eligibility for a VA loan better to acquire before a credit check at mortgage office?

My husband and I wanted to buy a house probably the end of this year or early next year and have been repairing our credit. In the past when we told lenders we wanted to use our VA loan they never even contacted the Dept of VA verifying that we were approved for the VA loan and instead declined us on the spot [January 2009 we were approved for a VA home, but declined due to strapped finances, then when we reapplied in April 2009 we learned that most lenders & the VA raised their qualification credit score limit]. However, I was reading that as long as we have the COE (Certificate of Eligibility) from the VA then we are set to proceed with receiving a home loan, as long as the mortgage company offered VA Loans. Is this the case, or did I misread it?

A VA loan does not guarantee that your loan will be paid. The government instead "guarantees" a portion of the loan. The part the government guarantees is known as your entitlement.

An entitlement amount is what the government guarantees the lenders they will pay in the event that you cannot repay your mortgage. Currently, for loan amounts under $144,000, the entitlement is $36,000. For loan amounts between $144,000 and $240,000, the entitlement is $60,000.

This is somewhat like having a down-payment because the lender knows that they will get that amount even if you default on the loan and they have to foreclose and take the house back.

VA loans are subject to the same terms as conventional loans, as they are provided by private lenders. The necessary income requirements and credit status still must be met by the borrower.

So you are never "set to proceed with receiving a home loan". It is always up to the bank or other lender and your credit history. Having the VA guarantee SOMETIMES makes it easier to secure the loan especially if you additionally have a good down payment.

What can you do with a BA in ART/minor in Biology? Any suggestions for career paths?

I love science and art. A few more classes and I could finish a BS-Biology. I like people all ages, medical field, college setting, problem solving and my interests are very broad. Could paint murals, do watercolors, pencil drawings, oil,photography, and I am great at interior decor (no formal education) Easier to state dislikes--hate doing the same thing everyday without engaging my brain. Dislike mean people, politics, lawyers, not a figure painter and not a huge fan of classical music. lol Have considered dental school,getting a masters and teaching art or art and biology... Want to make above average income( being rich would work out well but willing to compromise) , not be a starving artist or hang a worthless degree on my wall. Not getting any younger either. Anyone know how I could use my degree? I would consider opening my own business. ART is wonderful...want to do great things......need some ideas....anyone? anyone?

Become an illustrator - for medical textbooks, biology books and other education material My mother supported herself quite well for many year during the time we were developing her design company - papalotl.com and was able to balance her creativeness with the need for an income to support her art habit and raise a family
