Bulletin 2025-004 Rescissions & Disbursements for Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday 2025
Newrez LLC "Newrez" Approved Correspondent Clients: please note that Monday, January 20, 2025, is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, a federal holiday. Therefore, many banks and the U.S. Postal Service will not be open for business. Newrez will be closed for business.
Monday, January 20, 2025, 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, January 15, the earliest date that settlement could occur would be Saturday, January 18. If the consumer receives the initial CD on Thursday, January 16, the earliest date that settlement could occur would be Tuesday, January 21. Similarly, Monday, January 20, 2025, 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, January 20, 2025, it cannot be considered received until the next business day, Tuesday, January 21, 2025.
Accordingly, the following rescission dates will apply for loans closed on:
