QuestSoft Posts New HMDA Specifications for Dodd-Frank/NMLS Call Reporting, Well in Advance of Federal Deadlines


LAGUNA HILLS, CALIF., April 14, 2011 – QuestSoft, a leading provider of HMDA submission and mortgage compliance software, recently sent revised import specifications to over 50 loan origination software companies to help them prepare for the onset of the following regulations:

  • NMLS Standard Call Report - RMLA Section 1 - Quarterly Submission
  • South Carolina Mortgage Lending Act HMDA "Plus" Quarterly Submission Requirement
  • Office of Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) HMDA Plus requirements (varies by examiner)
  • Anticipated Dodd/Frank HMDA Changes (Federal Reserve/CFPB)
  • Other federal and state reports based on combinations of HMDA/Fair Lending/NMLS Licensing Data

The company has dedicated resources to enhance their existing product line by adding features and functionality that will allow lenders to comply with the flurry of new regulations on the horizon.

The updated CSV/XML specifications that should only require the addition of eight fields to most exports, have been posted on the company website at:

New fields relating to credit scores and prepayment penalties have been added and nine existing fields have been adjusted to allow for NMLS License IDs and new amortization and loan channel information.

In addition, he has had more than ten meetings with the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) regarding these reports, licensing issues and the new multi-state exam process. As a result, the company is providing its customers with an eighteen month head start on the new HMDA requirements required under Dodd/Frank.
