How long do you have to be employed to get a Kentucky mortgage? Every program wants a two-year history, but none require two years at your current job. New one-minute whiteboard explainer: FHA needs 2 years of work history with no minimum on the current job (a gap over 6 months needs 6 months back at work); VA wants related training or experience if you are under 12 months on the job; USDA wants 24 months of stable income (school and military count); KHC follows your first mortgage's rules plus household income limits; Conventional needs a letter for gaps and 2 years of tax returns if self-employed.
