Processing LE Change of Circumstance

  1. Verify how many Borrowers and Borrower Pairs need to be disclosed.

  2. Check what type of Loan Program we are using in the “Borrower Summary II Enhanced” screen. In addition to the “Loan Program” field, check the indicator boxes.

  1. Check to see if there is subordinate financing. If there is, you will need to send a Revised LE/COC for both files.

    1. If the loan program name has “DPA” in it, there’s subordinate financing

    2. Check the VOAL screen, if there is a lien/file, there’s subordinate financing

    3. If the LTV/CLTV/HCLTV are different numbers, there’s subordinate financing
