wE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. MY HUSBAND WORKS CONTRACT JOBS, FOR WHICH HE IS WELL PAID. THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT THIS SINCE THEY ARE NOT LONG TERM...MEANING YEARS. wE HAD TO HAVE ONE OF OUR 401K FUNDS SAY THAT WE WERE GOOD FOR A MONTHLY DISPERSEMENT. We had to accept one dispersement and then cancel it. But... we did close the loan.
