VA Updates Allowable Credit Report and AUS Fees

VA has established a new policy regarding credit reports and AUS fees. According to VA, the combined total for all credit reports cannot exceed $100. The combined total for AUS submissions cannot exceed $100. The only time where both a credit report and an AUS can be charged to the Veteran is on AUS “Refer” cases. A maximum total of $100 still applies for the combined total of the credit report and AUS charges.

This new policy was effective 11/13/2014. Please refer to VA Circular 26-14-36 for details.
