44. Loans A loan is a transaction whereby one party advances money to, or on behalf of another party, who promises to repay the lender in full, with or without interest. The loan agreement may be written or oral, and must be enforceable under Virginia law. Loans may be formal or informal. • An informal loan is a loan between individuals who are not in the business of lending money or providing credit. An informal loan can be oral or written. An informal loan is “written” when the parties to the loan commit to writing the terms of their agreement. • A formal (e.g., commercial) loan is a loan between an individual and an entity that is in the business of lending money or providing credit. Note: Federal Educational Loans (Federal PLUS Loans, Perkins Loans, Stafford Loans, William D. Ford Loans, etc.) under Title IV of the Higher Education Act (HEA) are excluded from resources and income. See Chapter E – 32.1 and Chapter I – 29.2.
