Kentucky USDA Loan Requirements Updated Income Limits for 2019
Effective July 22, 2019, income limits for all Kentucky Rural Housing USDA Rural Development Loans and their Counties have increased.
After a four year pilot that was tested in 16 States, USDA published a final rule making changes to allow for a two-tier income structure. Rather than buyer(s) meeting the income limit based on household members, income limits are divided into 2 groups: 1-4 and 5+ household members. Each Kentucky county has an income limit for families with 4 or fewer people, and each has a limit for households with 5 or more people.
Reminder on how to exceed Kentucky USDA Income Limits using the following exceptions:
• $480 for each child under 18
• Documented child care expense
• Full-time college students 18 or older
• Disability expense incurred
• Medical expense for elderly or disabled
The Guaranteed Underwriting System (GUS) and the Income Eligibility calculator on USDA Eligibility website have been updated to use the new income limits for every Kentucky County this is eligible for USDA loans in Kentucky
New Income limits for most counties (*) in Kentucky are $86,850 for a household family of four and household families of five or more can make up to $114,650.
The Northern Kentucky Counties (***) of Boon, Kenton, Campbell, Brackenn, Gallatin, and Pendleton are $93,500 for a household of four or less and up to $123,400 for a family of five or more.
