Bill Summary

A BILL To amend the National Housing Act and the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 to include information regarding VA home loans in the Informed Consumer Choice Disclosure required to be provided to prospective FHA borrowers and to require a military service question on the Uniform Residential Loan Application, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill aims to improve loan disclosure and transparency for veterans by making two key changes. First, it requires the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) to include information about VA home loans in the Informed Consumer Choice Disclosure that prospective borrowers receive, specifically adding details about VA loan guarantees and interest rates to help borrowers understand their options. Second, the bill mandates that the Uniform Residential Loan Application, which is used by major housing finance enterprises, include a question about military service that must be placed above the signature line. This addition will help lenders and financial institutions better track and potentially support veterans in the home loan process. The bill does not require lenders to determine a borrower's VA loan eligibility, but rather seeks to provide more comprehensive information and make military service status more prominently visible during the loan application process. The changes are to be implemented within six months of the bill's enactment, with the Federal Housing Finance Agency responsible for issuing the necessary rules to effect these modifications.
