Additional Compliance Reminders

 

Monday, February 15, 2021, is a federal holiday; therefore this date must be excluded as a business day when determining the earliest date that settlement may occur from the date the consumer(s) receive the initial Closing Disclosure. For example, if the consumer receives the initial CD on Wednesday, February 10, the earliest date that settlement could occur would be Saturday, February 13. If the consumer receives the initial CD on Friday, February 12, the earliest date that settlement could occur would be Wednesday, February 17. Similarly, Monday, February 15, 2021, must also be excluded as a business day in counting the seven business day waiting period from when the initial Loan Estimate was provided to consummation. As a reminder, if the initial Closing Disclosure is received on Monday, February 15, 2021, it cannot be considered received until the next business day.
