Section V (Monthly Income and Combined Housing Expense Information) of the
Uniform Residential Loan Application (Form 1003) consists of 2 distinctive
sub-sections: Gross Monthly Income - which also includes the Describe Other
Income group of fields - and Combined Monthly Housing Expense. Since the Gross
Monthly Income fields are broken down by Borrower and Co-Borrower while the
Combined Monthly Housing Expense fields are not, each sub-section had to be
represented differently in XML.
To represent the fields in the Gross Monthly Income sub-section, first we
added an <Income> child element to
the <Borrower> node. Then, we represented each field in the Gross
Monthly Income sub-section as a child element of this newly added <Income> element:
