Banks refusing mortgages when employer is on EWSS

    So I was in the process of switching my mortgage to another bank and they refused due to my employer being on the Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme.

    I have no debt, no loans, decent amount of savings and both our monthly take home pay could cover the mortgage 5 times over

    I guess this is the way of things for a few months but its a bit annoying.

    Horrible situation for anyone buying. We are fully approved but my fiancees company but we can't do anything. Deposit paid and all documents received. Nightmare

    If your employer requires government assistance to pay you, then the bank would be right to worry about your continuing income

    Some of the biggest and most profitable company's are on the scheme and could do without but they choose to stay on it anyway.

    I get it benefits more than it doesn't but its quite harsh for people trying to get a house.
