SAFE Act: Ongoing Updates & Renewals

The SAFE Act requires Mortgage Loan Originators (MLOs) to be licensed and registered. That includes both an initial registration and updates/renewals for any existing registrations. It’s important to note that if there are changes to certain Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS) registry information such as the MLO’s name, their current employment status and/or actions or orders against them, this information must be updated within 30 days of it becoming inaccurate. Changes to other types of information can just wait until the annual renewal period.

Jerod explains more in the video.
