Bill gives surviving spouses of fully disabled veterans access to VA loans

Washington, DC – October 18, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — Congresswoman Virginia Foxx’s (NC-05) bipartisan legislation that fixes a flaw in the VA home loan system passed the House last night as part of H.R. 2433, the Veterans Opportunity to Work Act. Her bill, the Disabled Veterans’ Surviving Spouses Home Loans Act, provides access to VA home loans for surviving spouses of permanently disabled veterans whose deaths are not necessarily attributed to their service-related disability.
