When can rental income be counted as income?

I’m in the process of purchasing my first investment property. I want to begin to prepare for the second property and wanted to know when the income generated from the first property can be counted as income to qualify for a small mortgage for the second property.

Does anyone know specifically when the rental income can be counted as income for qualifying for a new mortgage loan?

I was told 2 years for your first property, and then immediately for any property you obtain after you have that 2 years of landlording under your belt. Iassume this varies by lender.
