It's a short one page application you fill out online then they call you back and do the rest of it over the phone. The lady I spoke to was very pleasant to do business with. She guaranteed me the rate, the papers are being mailed to me to sign and I'll mail my check back with the signature sheets. I scanned and e-mailed her my drivers license and a current utility bill as I'd misplaced my ss card.
