Indian home loan program expands to more states
Tuesday, June 20, 2006

The Section 184 Indian home loan program is now available to Native Americans in Missouri, Alabama and Mississippi.

The Chickasaw Nation's Bank2 is the first bank to offer loans in the state. Three have been booked in the last 90 days, the bank president said.

The Bush administration has been rapidly expanding the Section 184 program. Tribes have secured approvals for tribal members living away from reservations in several states.
