Hello,
This is my first time seeing this form. I have a question concerning the Voluntary information section of the the report and certification of loan disbursement form. Should the Borrower’s name go in this section or do I leave it blank? and is there anything else I need to be aware or bring to the Borrower’s attention concerning this form? Thank you all in advance for any assistance you can provide.
It appears all that is needed are the signers initials. The rest is completed.
It says to initial if they DO NOT wish to do the check boxes. The boxes are done. No action necessary
Thank you both. I was wondering if I needed to add the Borrower’s name to section 37 and 38a for identification purposes. I appreciate the feedback.
signature only. but if they initialed it too I doubt the VA would kick it back.
Within the context of this specific scenario involving the Report and Certification of Loan Disbursement, VA Form 26-1820, it is the responsibility of the signer(s) to meticulously place their initials within each designated box and to provide their signatures on all lines that explicitly require them.
This is my interpretation of that form:
Reading the instructions in 37A & 38A: initial if veteran and/or spouse do not wish to provide info for 37B, 37C, 37D, 38B, 38C & 38D then date and sign. If 37B, 37C, 37D, 38B, 38C & 38D are already checked, no initials, just date and sign.
To answer OP’s question, no. No need to enter veteran’s name in 37A nor the co-obligator’s name in 38A.
No name goes in it. They initial the box only if they choose to not answer the ethnicity questions.
Thank you. That was the answer I was looking for 
Straight to the point.. Thank you!
Thank you for your help!
Many thanks to all who replied and for the guidance this community provides! 
If the check boxes aren’t rechecked, either ask the client to check the demographics portion or initial if they prefer not to answer. It has worked for me.
**prechecked - not rechecked. I should have checked my spellcheck!
