Hi all- need opinions. Does the 30 day requirement for a decision start ticking at application date, or when intent to proceed is given (if date is different than application date)?

Differing opinions here, that I need to settle.

"Complete Application" not just application. The date you have a complete application my be different than application date (depending on your definition of what a complete application is at your institution).

So if your policy states that a "complete application" was upon receipt of a,b,c, and c is "borrowers intent to proceed", then yes, that could be the start of the 30-day ECOA notification clock?

NA is correct. A "borrowers intent to proceed" has nothing to do with the timing requirements of Regulation B. The consumer could have given you a complete application on day one or ten days after the intent to proceed was received. Don't get Reg. Z involved with Reg. B. and you will be much better off. You don't need an intent to proceed to underwrite a loan and I doubt that 1 in a 1000 applications would be considered complete before you received an intent to proceed. If you have more than that, then your loan officers are requiring more than they should prior to accepting an application.

"Complete Application" not just application.

There are two timing requirements.

If you receive an incomplete application today you must either deny the application for an incomplete application or send a notice of incompleteness within 30 days from today if you have not received the information needed to complete the application.

From 1002.9.

(c) Incomplete applications. (1) Notice alternatives. Within 30 days after receiving an application that is incomplete regarding matters that an applicant can complete, the creditor shall notify the applicant either:

(i) Of action taken, in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section; or

(ii) Of the incompleteness, in accordance with paragraph (c)(2) of this section.


Once you have a completed application then you have 30 days from the date of completion to advise the applicant of the credit decision.

Thanks, got it - don't confuse/combine regs. The borrower's Reg Z "intent to proceed" is not a piece of determining what a "complete application" is for Reg B.

If you send out TRID but don't receive the intent to proceed within 30days, do you consider this a withdrawal even though you have already pulled credit?

Withdrawal for what purpose?

You have to either send a AAN or an incomplete notice to the customer under Reg. B.

Adverse Action Notice saying intent to proceed was not received?....but is it considered to be a withdrawal is my question, you would not process as a denial based on any credit factors correct?

Again, can you please specify the context you are talking about - withdrawal under what regulation or in what context - Reg. B or C or some internal classification?

Under Regulation B a withdrawal only occurs when:

Official Interpretation

Section 1002.9—Notifications

2. Expressly withdrawn applications. When an applicant expressly withdraws a credit application, the creditor is not required to comply with the notification requirements under §1002.9. (The creditor must comply, however, with the record retention requirements of the regulation. See §1002.12(b)(3).)

Without an express withdrawal from the applicant (which would not be just the fact that you got no response from the applicant), you would have to follow the notification requirements under 1002.9(b) or (c) and within the timing requirements of 1002.9(a).

If customer is handed LE, etc. and comes back next day to bank and gives us Intent to Proceed can the CLOD get issued right away?

Theoretically, yes. Just know that closing can't take place sooner than the 7th business day after the LE was delivered or placed in the mail, and that the more time that passes between delivery of the CloD and closing, the greater the potential for a fee increase that you won't be able to pass on to the borrower.
