Steps

  1. Confirm the applicant is currently licensed/certified by the state and has no delinquent federal debt, screened via CAIVRS.
  2. Complete VA Form 26-6681 (Fee or Roster Personnel Designation Application) for appraiser designation, including the required letters of recommendation from other appraisers.
  3. Submit the completed application to the appropriate VA Regional Loan Center (RLC) for the geographic area of intended practice.
  4. If the question is instead about a lender's Staff Appraisal Reviewer (SAR) seeking Lender Appraisal Processing Program (LAPP) authority, treat that as a separate track requiring a processing fee, resume, and VA Form 26-0785, with minimum relevant experience for the SAR.
  5. Confirm current form numbers and submission channels on va.gov/benefits.va.gov before relying on cached instructions, since VA periodically updates forms and portals.
