So DD is buying her first house with an FHA loan. I gave her a small gift of $3000 to help with closing costs and repairs. We have combined banking accounts meaning my checking and savings account are on the same statement as her checking account. We had it set up that way when she was in college so that we could easily transfer funds and so that she wouldn't have to pay a maintenance fee. I transferred the gift money to her account a week ago. Now the underwriter is saying I must submit my whole statement - not just the two accounts showing the transfer. I contend that my checking account is none of their business, is not relevant to the loan and does not need to be included. They say it is a FHA law but I can find nothing stating such. If I hold my ground, I risk the loan not going through. Anyone have advice?
