Passing the Fee to the Borrower

Answered by: 

Question: 
In order to comply with the Patriot Act, our company orders a separate report to determine the validity of a potential customer's DOB, SSN, name and address. Since this is a separate report from the credit report, are we allowed to pass the fee onto the borrower?
Answer: 

Yes, however it will be a finance charge for Reg Z purposes.
