    If the second job isn't in the ame line of work as the primary then they will only take 50% of it into acount.

    Do you have any credit commitments? Any children? These will impact afffordability.

    Ask the broker for a copy of the affordability calculation. They should be doing these prior to submission.

  • Thank you everyone, for your help.

    After more digging, it is looking increasingly likely that someone somewhere has been falsifying information, possibly illegally.

    For that reason I am going to leave this thread as I don't want to say any more about it on a public forum.

    However, I do appreciate your help, thanks
    :)
