A 5281 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires DMVA to provide mortgage loan counseling under certain circumstances.

This bill requires the New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs to offer mortgage loan counseling to veterans applying for home loans guaranteed by the federal G.I. Bill. Under the new rules, lenders must provide a specific form confirming that eligible applicants have been offered these counseling services, which include a review of loan terms and other relevant information. The program is designed to assist veterans in understanding the conditions of their housing loans, and it applies to all residents of New Jersey who have been honorably discharged from the armed forces.
