Last week, we put out a blog alerting you to the fact that changes had been made to the Fair Housing Poster and based on our initial read, suggested updating your Fair Housing Posters. After hearing back from many of you and your inability to obtain updated posters, we decided to reach out directly to the FDIC.
The first time, we were told that banks should just periodically check back with the FDIC and if changes to the Poster are needed, they will tell you when you contact them. We didn’t really like this answer and reached out again. The second time, we were told that there was apparently an error in the Federal Register and there really is no correction and that the Poster will not be updated. We tried a third time to try and reconcile these two answers and have not received a response. We’ve also heard from others who also contacted the FDIC and were told there may be additional changes coming and to hold off with any updates.
So, at this point in time, we are recommending a wait-and-see approach and will just look for future direction from the FDIC.
