The Uniform Residential Loan Application should be used only on residences (construction and homes already built) and not on lot loans where building will not be going on for some time, right?

Can you collect the government monitoring information on a construction loan application? Our construction department uses the regular 1003 form, but I thought you could not collect this information for construction loans.

My question is in regards to Regulation B Monitoring Infomation. We are a non HMDA reporting bank. We have received mixed information concerning the collection of the monitoring information on telephone, mail and internet applications. Does the creditor need to complete the monitoring information on telephone, mail or internet applications to purchase or refinance the applicant's personal residence?

I'm working on a loan for a customer which has the customer's residence and 232 acres as collateral. This is for a business purpose. Do I have to have a residential loan application and a notice of right to receive a copy of an appraisal? Also, do I need the right to rescission, since the loan's purpose is for business?

I'm in the process of completing an audit of the Fair Housing Act for a national bank. The OCC requires that "each bank shall attempt to obtain all of the information below." It then goes on to require a considerable amount of information in excess of the traditional government monitoring information (race, ethnicity, sex, marital status, and age). Is all of this information required to be on the application? Will the information (such as amount requested, interest rate requested, # of months to maturity, and proposed monthly payment) being in the loan file on some other document suffice? Also, does the fact that the application is partially completed suffice for compliance with the regulation for "attempting to obtain" the information?

Starting in 2004 we are new to collecting HMDA data. I have several questions: 1. When one of our real estate loans matures, we get a new note signed, issue a new loan number and prepare RESPA documents. Would this be considered a renewal or refinance and would it be reportable? 2. Are farm loans secured by a dwelling reportable if we refinance? 3. According to RESPA and monitoring, we are required to collect monitoring information on all reportable HMDA loans except corporations etc. How do we handle this for RESPA when collecting monitoring isn’t necessary at times?

When taking an application over the phone, how should the gov't monitoring information be handled? Usually when taking a application over the phone, we also send the application out for signatures. Should this information then be filled out by the customer when signing? We have seen some varying information regarding this, so please be specific on how this should be handled.
