NMLS Number if App Withdrawn (HMDA)

Answered by: 

Question: 
If a HMDA applicable application was withdrawn by the borrower before it ever got to the originator, what do we put for the NMLS number? Can we leave blank, should we put N/A (I believe that's only for Originators that don't have and don't need NMLS numbers), should we default to a manager or is there another recommendation?
Answer: 

Unless Business or Commercial Purpose equals 2, you cannot enter N/A.

It cannot be left blank.

If you are not exempt from reporting the NMLS number, then you need to assign the file to someone.
