72(t) Distribution Amounts
IRS Notice 2022-62 provides that taxpayers may use—beginning with payments starting in 2022 or later—the greater of 120% of the applicable Federal mid-term rate, or 5% to calculate 72(t) payments using the Amortization or Annuitization methods.
Also known as the debt ratio, lenders use this ratio, along with the front-end ratio, to determine the maximum loan amount. Debt ratio equals your combined monthly mortgage payment plus any other monthly debt obligations, such as credit cards and alimony, divided by your gross monthly income. Use a back-end ratio of 33% for conservative results and as high as 42% for aggressive results (usually requires excellent credit and a higher down payment).
Front End Ratio
Also known as the housing ratio, lenders use this ratio along with the back-end ratio to determine the maxiumum loan amount. The housing ratio equals the combined (principal + interest + taxes + insurance) monthly mortgage payment divided by your gross monthly income. For example, a combined monthly mortgage payment of $1,200 divided by gross monthly income of $4,500 equals a housing ratio of 27%. Use a front-end ratio of 28% for conservative results and as high as 36% for aggressive results (usually requires excellent credit and a higher down payment).
