HMDA LAR Issue- Ethnicity is "NA"
12/20/2020
I have a HMDA LAR issue on Commercial - Non originated loans. I have received several edit notices - "Q648: If action is 1,2,3,4,5,7 or 8 then the first 20 characters of the ULI should match the reported LEI" when validating my HMDA LAR. These loans are non-originated HMDA Commercial where the ethnicity is "NA". Is this a known issue or something new?
