田纳西州退伍军人获住房贷款第一优先：农业部批准2027财年豁免 遗属同享优先
位于田纳西州戴维森县的 Nashville 市—美国农业部（USDA）乡村发展署田纳西州主任 Patrick Jaynes 11月10日宣布，该署已批准一项2027财年住房豁免：通过第502条款单户住房贷款计划申请援助的退伍军人与已故退伍军人的遗属，将获得第一优先申请资格。宣布时点正值2026年退伍军人节前夕。
Jaynes 说，退伍军人选择为国家服役，是最伟大的服务之举之一；这项安排在退伍军人节之际以实际行动表达感谢，把退伍军人与遗属放在住房援助工作的最前面。他还表示，这项安排是在特朗普总统与农业部长 Brooke Rollins 的领导下作出。
新优先资格将在整个2027财年适用于符合条件的申请人，是田纳西州乡村发展署在该计划下最高级别的申请处理优先。农业部同时说明，第一优先只确立申请处理顺序，不保证贷款获批，申请人仍须满足计划的各项资格要求；第502条款计划帮助符合条件的申请人在合资格的乡村地区获得安全、体面、卫生的住房。
这项安排与田纳西州乡村发展署已有的多项退伍军人住房工作相衔接，包括2025年设立的 Homes for Hometown Vets 小型住房试点计划与 Project 250 住房修缮计划。

Tennessee Veterans Get Top Priority for Rural Housing Loans: USDA Approves Fiscal 2027 Waiver, Surviving Spouses Included
NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Patrick Jaynes, Tennessee State Director for U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development, announced on November 10 that the agency has approved a housing waiver for fiscal year 2027 granting priority one application status to military veterans and surviving spouses of deceased veterans applying for assistance through the Section 502 Single Family Housing Loan Program. The announcement came in recognition of Veterans Day 2026.
Jaynes said few acts of service are greater than the decision to serve one's country, and that the move demonstrates gratitude through meaningful action that places veterans and surviving spouses at the forefront of housing assistance efforts. He said the step was taken under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins.
The approved waiver establishes veterans and surviving spouses as priority one applicants, the highest level of application priority under the program in Tennessee, and the designation will apply to eligible applicants throughout fiscal year 2027. USDA noted that the priority designation establishes application processing priority only and does not guarantee loan approval; applicants must continue to meet program eligibility requirements. The Section 502 program helps eligible applicants obtain safe, decent, and sanitary housing in eligible rural areas.
The initiative complements existing Tennessee Rural Development housing efforts focused on veterans, including the Homes for Hometown Vets Small House Pilot Program, established in 2025, and the Project 250 Home Repair Program.
