Question: What does the lender look at on a Self Employed Tax return?

I am thinking about buying my first home. I have two years been self-employed (contract labor not business) and have tax returns to prove income. However, I am slightly confused at what the lender will be looking at. I was told that it is the adjusted gross income, but someone also told me the taxable income. I think the latter is wrong because it includes standard deductions, not business deductions, therefore I still brought that home. Can someone help me please?

Answer: i know that the lender will look at your adjusted income, but they will also look at your profit and loss sheets(schedule C), with the economy the way it is, any lender will be looking at the success of your business as well as your personal income.
