Was just pre approved for a home loan, signed the papers with the real estate agent today and tomorrow I'm expecting the loan officer to ask for a bunch of documents to prove our income. How quick is quickly when turning in these documents? If I have all of them by friday (tomorrow is tues) will that be enough time? Or will that push everything out too late???

the bigger question is how were you pre-approved without having supplied proof of your income already?

A few days is normal, however, now is the time for you to hold up your end of the process, dig in and get all the paperwork needed ASAP. The sooner you respond to all requests of you the smoother you transaction will be. Jim

Yes we put in an offer and it was accepted since my mother is the selling party (Estate sale). The closing date is March 23rd. The house price has to go to Court since its a Estate and the siblings are fighting. I'm just hoping we'll have enough time to get in the info we need and I'm not sure what they'll ask for!!

As long as you get them everything they ask for the same day it should only take 2-4 weeks

Your tax return question might be something to consider.  If you are relying on your 2011 Tax Return income to qualify, be sure to speak to your lender.  These days most lenders must verify your tax returns through the IRS and if you file them in the next week or two, the IRS system will not be able to do that.  It's not a problem if you qualify using your 2010 returns, so be sure to discuss this with your lender.  Good luck to you.

Sooner is always better, they will be asking for more documents, most likely, and it is a longer process than it was 5 years ago. But your timing sounds fine...
