Key Requirements
- Calculate remaining mortgage loan term based on interest-bearing UPB and contractual P&I payment for borrowers with principal curtailments
- Update loan modification processing procedures to reflect clarified calculation methodology
- Update contact information for Rural Development claim inquiries and approval requests
Scoring Rationale
This is a GSE servicing guide update providing clarification on existing processes rather than creating new regulatory obligations. The calculation methodology clarification affects operational procedures but represents incremental rather than substantial change. The contact update is purely administrative. Scored as low impact given the clarifying nature and limited scope to servicers of Fannie Mae loans.
