New URLA MISMO 3.4: We're Ready –Are You?

It’s been about four years since Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac jointly announced a major update of the standard 1003, and after some delays, the deadline is just days away.

Starting March 1, 2021, the use of the new URLA will be mandatory for all lenders who intend to sell the funded loan to either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

We’ve been preparing for this massive update since the news first broke, perfecting Loanzify’s digital intake to ensure that it’s compatible and compliant with all updates.

Instant implementation

Loanzify POS digital 1003 intake is URLA-ready and you can export the file to MISMO 3.4. Transitioning is immediate.

Uninterrupted workflow

Enhanced CX

The customer experience (CX) is foundational to the Borrower’s Journey. Our digital 1003 uses an interview-style questionnaire that collects the necessary borrower data while staying compliant with the new URLA.

An Overview of the New URLA Updates

Changes to the new URLA include substantial updates to the format, content, and structure using the MISMO v3.4 reference model. Some of the most significant changes include:

• Data conditionality for a better and more thorough risk assessment.
• Flexible data structures to allow for multiple instances of repeating information for borrowers, such as multiple sources of income or shared assets.
• Supports data requirements for Conventional loans, Government (FHA, VA) loans, and Fannie Mae’s EarlyCheck™, as well as the new Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA).
• Addition of new data fields including mobile phone number, email address, and military service history.
• Supported by the newly created Uniform Loan Application Dataset (ULAD) to show how the data is mapped to MISMO v3.4 reference model.
