Lenders are more likely to look favorably on an applicant who has been in the same (or similar) line of work for generally two or more years.

• Your work is typically seasonal and gaps in employment are customary to the industry
• You may have been laid off from your job; or
• Frequent employment changes are normal in your line of work (sales, contract work, etc.), but you have been consistently employed and maintained a consistent level of income over the past 2 years.
