VA home loan with less than 60 days active duty?

[allansc2005]

Got a navy veteran, let's call him "Joe Bell Bottoms" who was discharged while in basic training in 1994 after serving 54 days on active duty, and received a 10% rating for a mental condition, before being sent home.

Last year Joe was granted temporary IU for service connected mental conditions.

Joe thinks he's eligible for a VA home loan, I say he's not because he served less than 48 months on active duty.

Joe hasn't applied for a home loan yet, and would like our opinions here BEFORE he applies.

Now before everyone jumps in and suggests that Joe call everyone from the VA to his Congressman, what's your opinion?

Thanks.

allan look at the bottom  it specifically states  other reasons why he qualifies for a home loan. Hardship & other reasons .

*If you do not meet the minimum service requirements, you may still be eligible if you were discharged due to (1) hardship, (2) the convenience of the government, (3) reduction-in-force, (4) certain medical conditions, or (5) a service-connected disability.
