ITIN Loans (Mortgage Options Without a Social Security Number)

ITIN loans provide home financing options for borrowers who do not have a Social Security number but file taxes using an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). These loans are designed to help qualified borrowers purchase or refinance a home using alternative documentation.

At Seattle Mortgage Pros, we help ITIN borrowers explore mortgage options with clear guidance, realistic expectations, and a solutions-first approach.

What Is an ITIN Loan?

An ITIN loan is a type of mortgage designed for borrowers who:

  • Do not have a Social Security number
  • File U.S. taxes using an ITIN
  • Have established credit, income, and asset documentation

ITIN loans are typically offered through specialty and Non-QM lenders and follow different qualification guidelines than traditional mortgages.

ITIN Loan Purchase & Refinance Options

ITIN Purchase Loans

ITIN loans can be used to purchase a primary residence, allowing qualified borrowers to become homeowners even without a Social Security number. These programs often require a down payment and documented income, but provide a clear path to ownership.

ITIN Refinance Loans

Homeowners with ITIN status may also be able to refinance an existing mortgage to improve terms, lower payments, or access home equity—depending on eligibility and loan structure.

Each scenario is reviewed individually, and requirements may vary by lender.

How Borrowers Qualify for ITIN Loans

Qualification for an ITIN loan is based on a combination of factors, including:

  • ITIN documentation and tax filing history
  • Proof of income (pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements)
  • Credit history (traditional or alternative credit)
  • Assets and down payment strength

Many ITIN borrowers qualify using alternative credit, such as rental history or utility payments, when traditional credit is limited.

Why ITIN Loans Can Be a Smart Path to Homeownership

ITIN loans help borrowers:

  • Purchase a home without a Social Security number
  • Build long-term stability through homeownership
  • Use documented income to qualify
  • Explore refinance options as circumstances improve

With the right structure, ITIN loans can open doors that traditional lending may not.
