SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with 38 U.S.C. Chapter 37, the 
VA home loan guaranty program offers a partial guaranty against loss to 
lenders who make home loans to Veterans. VA regulations concerning the

which states that one part of the indebtedness upon which the guaranty 
percentage is applied is the allowable expenses/advances as described 
in 38 CFR 36.4314 (re-designated from Sec.  36.4814).
    The Secretary annually reviews timeframes in connection with the 
termination of single-family housing loans including foreclosure, deed-
in-lieu of foreclosure, and bankruptcy-related services, issued by the 
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Fannie Mae, and

reasonable foreclosure timeframes for the preferred method of 
terminating VA-guaranteed loans and mirrors the timeframes allowed by 
Fannie Mae. This table will be available throughout the year at: https://www.benefits.va.gov/homeloans/. Pursuant to 38 CFR 36.4314(f)(2) and 
36.4324(a)(3)(ii), a guaranty claim can include unpaid interest for a
