Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: Under
24 CFR 202.8(3), Direct Endorsement
(DE) lenders which sponsor third-party
originators (TPOs) are responsible to the
Secretary for the actions of TPOs or
mortgagees in originating loans or
mortgages, unless applicable law or
regulation requires specific knowledge
on the part of the party to be held
responsible. As a result, DE lenders are
responsible for conducting quality
control on TPO originations of FHAinsured mortgage loans, and ensuring
that their quality control plans contain
appropriate oversight provisions. This
creates an information collection burden
on DE lenders, since these institutions
must conduct quality control on all
loans they originate and underwrite. In
addition, under 24 CFR 203.255(c) and
(e), HUD conducts both pre- and postendorsement reviews of loans submitted
for FHA insurance by DE lenders. As
part of those reviews, the Secretary is
authorized to determine if there is any
information indicating that any
certification or required document is
false, misleading, or constitutes fraud or
misrepresentation on the part of any
party, or that the mortgage fails to meet
a statutory or regulatory requirement. In
order to assist the Secretary with this
directive, FHA requires that lenders
self-report all findings of fraud and
material misrepresentation, as well any
material findings concerning the
origination, underwriting, or servicing
of the loan that the lender is unable to
mitigate or otherwise resolve. The
obligation to self-report these findings
creates an additional information
collection burden on DE lenders.
In accordance with the requirements
of 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Notice soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was initially published in
the Federal Register on December 21,
2010 (Volume 75, Number 244, page
80066). At that time, FHA still allowed
for loan correspondents to participate in
its programs and had not yet
transitioned to the use of TPOs.
Therefore, FHA estimated information

collection burdens based on the
expected used of TPOs by DE lenders.
Three years later, FHA has revised these
estimates with real data, which has
substantially reduced the information
collection burden associated with OMB
Control Number 2502–0600.
