How long does a VA Loan require you live in the residence?

I am house hacking a property in the OKC area. From the research, I think you have to live in the property for 2 years but I have been unable to confirm it with anyone.

 There is no max-min. Just like any other gov loan you are to occupy the property as your primary residence. If you move out of the property and renting it you are technically violating the agreement and the loan could be called, but I don't know if any lenders check if you are physically there.
