Batch File Format for Payment of Monthly (Periodic) Mortgage Insurance Premium (Old Format)

- -
 Information by State
 Print version
 

The batch file format described below is used to transmit to HUD (CPU to CPU) Single Family monthly (periodic) mortgage insurance premium payments. Collection processing of the transmitted payment is performed by Pay.gov.

This is an older format that was formerly used by some lenders and service bureaus to transmit their files to Mellon Bank. It is referred to as the Old Format. Of the two available formats (Old Format and New Format), the Old Format is more complex and is NOT recommended unless the lender used the Old Format in the past to transmit batch files to Mellon Bank. For information regarding the New Format, see Batch File Format for Payment of Monthly (Periodic) Mortgage Insurance Premium (New Format).

The batch file must include the following records, in this order:

 -   Header Record
 -   Detail Record (Mortgagee/Lender Header)
 -   Supplemental Record Type 4-01
 -   Supplemental Record Type 4-02
 -   Supplemental Record Type 4-03
 -   Supplemental Record Type 4-04
 -   Deposit Control Record
 -   Deposit Total Record

The file can have only one Header Record, Deposit Control Record, and Deposit Total Record. The file can contain multiple Detail and Supplemental Records (Type 4). See Supplemental Record Type 04-01 for more details.

For information on batch file naming conventions, see Periodic Mortgage Insurance Premium Batch Payment Processing Instructions for CPU to CPU Transmissions.

Supplemental Record Type 4-01
The Supplemental Record Type 4 has four subtypes (01 through 04) that are repeated in sequence (01, 02, 03, 04) until all supplemental load data has been incorporated. As they are repeated, the actual sequence numbers (Sequence Number of Overflow) increment by one. For example, the second series of these four records would be sequence numbers 05, 06, 07, 08; and the third series would increment to 09, 10, 11, 12; etc. If the sequence number exceeds 99, restart the series at 01. The last Supplemental Record Type 4 (subtype 01, 02, 03, or 04) is indicated by placing the value 9 in the Last Record Indicator field.
