Description |
| Case
Number Assignment/Update |
Allows a lender
to establish a case in HUD's Title I Insurance and Claims System
(TIIS/F72) and obtain an FHA case number. Once the case number is
assigned, it is used to reference the case and initiate all FHA
Connection endorsement processing and servicing transactions. Case
Number Assignment/Update is also used to update the property, borrower,
and general loan information prior to endorsement.
Note: For cases with a credit application date prior to June 1,
2009, Case Number Assignment/Update does not appear when selected
(and no other Title I Manufactured Housing Loans functions are available).
The system automatically displays the old reporting function, i.e.,
Report a New Loan for Insurance or Report a Refinance for Insurance,
as appropriate. Effective September 15, 2009, this old functionality
is obsolete. |
| Pay
Upfront Premium |
Allows a lender
to pay any upfront insurance premiums, late fees, and/or interest
charges owed on a case. A loan cannot be endorsed for FHA insurance
if all or part of the upfront insurance premium is not paid or there
are outstanding late and/or interest charges. |
| Request for
Endorsement Letter |
Allows lenders to generate
and print the Request for Endorsement Letter. This letter is used
as a checklist of documents that are required in the case binder. |
| Insurance Application |
Allows a lender
to process a request for FHA loan insurance for a Title I manufactured
home loan, including adding, reviewing, or changing insurance application
information for a case prior to endorsement. |
| Case Cancel |
Allows a lender to
halt processing on an unendorsed case. After an unendorsed case
is canceled, it remains as a recorded Title I case and retains
the originally assigned case number, but the status of the case
becomes inactive. Any paid upfront insurance premium charges
are automatically scheduled for refund to the lender. A canceled
case can be reinstated at any time by authorized HUD personnel. |
| Case Query |
Allows the originator (or
lender on record for the case) to determine the current status of
an FHA Title I manufactured home loan. View-only details are provided
on the property, borrower, and general case information, as entered
in Title I MH Case Number Assignment; as well as loan, credit/underwriting,
additional borrower information, and endorsement information, as
entered in the Title I MH Insurance Application. |
| CAIVRS Authorization |
Lists the available information
on a potential borrower's default, claim, judgment, or foreclosure
on a past government loan or guarantee. |
| Endorsement Aging Query |
Allows lender personnel
to request and review endorsement processing timeline information
at the case level. This allows you to scan and evaluate
cases in the endorsement processing pipeline. |
| Loan Insurance
Certificate/Notice of Return |
Allows the originator (or
lender on record for the case) to view and print a) the Title I
MH Loan Insurance Certificate (LIC), if the case was endorsed for
FHA Title I loan insurance; or, b) the Title I MH Notice of Return
(NOR), if the case was not endorsed (i.e., rejected) for FHA Title
I loan insurance. |
| Service Bureau
Authorization |
Lending institutions that
choose to use the financial services of HUD-approved service bureaus
for their loans must authorize the service bureau(s) to perform
servicing tasks on the FHA Connection. The Service Bureau Authorization
function allows the lender's Application Coordinator(s) to select
an approved service bureau to access the appropriate Title I functions,
e.g., Report Single Loans or Report Multiple Loans. See Service Bureau Administration [PDF] for additional information.
| Note: Service bureaus are organizations
contracted by lending institutions to provide financial services
for their loans. Service bureaus access the FHA Connection to perform
servicing tasks designated by the lender(s) with which they are
associated. |
|
| Underwriters |
Allows lenders to register
underwriter employees with the FHA. Once successfully completed,
the individual is issued a Title I underwriter identification number
by the FHA that is associated with the individual throughout his/her
tenure as a Title I underwriter, regardless of employer. Underwriters
can also be used to request a list of underwriters included in HUD's
registry. Lenders may review and update registry information for
underwriters they currently employ. |
| Upfront Payment History |
Allows lenders to obtain
information regarding upfront loan insurance premium payments made
within a specified period. |
| Upfront Premium Refund Query |
Allows lenders to search for and view refund history and details for a particular lender, case, refund status, refund type, and/or date range. |
