FHA during C-13... FICO score?

[Slingerland]

This is a question specific to getting a new mortgage, or refinancing while in a chapter 13. I know that FHA is doing this now, under certain circumstances and with manual underwriting. I am looking to refi my home.

For those of us here who have done it successfully, was your FICO score looked at? Being in a C-13, and with manual underwriting I would imagine the FICO score is not very relevant, but I'm thinking ahead.

Thanks!

The hard part is finding a lender that will and know's how to do it . I don't know about FHA , You can do a HARP refi when in a ch 13. That's what we are doing.
It's taken us 6 mo's and we still havn't closed.

Lot's of hoop's to jump thru. First thing is to find a lender .
