To apply for HAMP, you must submit a loss mitigation application along with supporting documentation such as pay stubs, tax returns, and bank statements to your mortgage servicer. Your servicer will review your application, and if you qualify for HAMP, you will be placed in a trial period plan for three months. If you make all of your trial period payments on time and meet any other trial period requirements you will receive a permanent loan modification.
