The Loan officer (John) collects the documents required for loans from the Borrowers.
The Loan officer then forwards the loans request to the Loan Processor (Mary).
The Loan Processor (Mary) verifies the documents.
The Loan Processor then notifies the Loan officer about the rejected loans and forwards the approved loans to the Loan Underwriter (Jack).
The Loan Underwriter (Jack) then approves/rejects the loans accordingly.
The Loan Underwriter is notified about the rejected loans.
If the approved loan is between US $50K to $75k then forward the loan to the Supervisor for approval else forward it to the Manager.
The Supervisor approves/rejects loan and notifies the Loan Officer about the same.
The Manager approves/rejects loan and notifies the Loan Officer about the same.
