Our bank recently formed a holding company...does that need to be reflected on NMLS? I called them but they said I needed to ask my regulator that question. And if so, how do I go about adding a holding company? Is that done through an amendment of our original MU1R filing? Any help is appreciated.

The only reference I can see to a holding company on the MU1R forms is the question "are you a subsidiary?" If you are, it asks for the holding company's RSSD number. You may need to contact the Federal Reserve to obtain a new RSSD for the holding company if one has not been assigned. There is a Y-9 form (if my memory is correct) that can be used to make that request. Once you have the RSSD, you can check the NMLS site for instructions on amending your MU1R filing.

We are in the same boat...

I called the NMLS and they told me to email our regulator and I emailed our regulator and they directed me to the CFPB.

This is what they said...
