Lender Notification Layout


	Information by State Print version

Lender Notification provides information about any irregular results from the application of payments. The information is generated as payments are processed. Lender Notifications do not include situations when there has been a payment made on an invalid case.

Using the FHA Connection, you should check your notifications 3-5 business days after you send your payment and again after the Reconciliation file has been generated. For Frame Relay Network users, the Lender Notification file is updated monthly and available on the 14th of the month.

Note: The Servicer/Payee Name field has been added to the Lender Notification file. You will have the option of including this field when you download a Lender Notification file. Do not attempt to process a Lender Notification file with the additional field until your system has been updated to accommodate it. Otherwise, you may experience system errors, including unusable data.
