Familial Status Question....
Hi BP,
I'm in the process reviewing applications for a SFH and uncertain about the following: Can a married couple that shows more income on the application be considered "more favorable" to me than a singe person that shows the same income as one of the spouses from the other application? Obviously, the combined income totals more for the married couple but I don't know if I have to look at each person "individually." Thanks in advance for any input! - Bill
