Bill Summary
SAFE Transitional Licensing Act of 2015 This bill amends the S.A.F.E. Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 to provide a temporary license of 120 days for registered loan originators: (1) moving from a financial institution to a state-licensed non-bank originator, or (2) moving interstate to a state-licensed loan originator in another state. Any person registering a registered loan originator with the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry shall be subject to this Act and to applicable state law to the same extent as if that registered loan originator was licensed and registered as a state-licensed loan originator.
AI Summary
This bill, the SAFE Transitional Licensing Act of 2015, amends the S.A.F.E. Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 to create a temporary 120-day license for loan originators who are transitioning between jobs. This temporary license applies to two main scenarios: first, when a registered loan originator moves from a financial institution to a state-licensed non-bank mortgage company, and second, when a state-licensed loan originator moves to work in another state. During this temporary period, these individuals can continue originating loans while their new state license is being processed, provided they meet certain criteria such as having no prior license denials or disciplinary actions, and having been registered in the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry (NMLS), a national database for mortgage professionals, within the preceding 12 months. Any entity that registers a loan originator under this temporary authority will be subject to the same laws and regulations as if that individual were fully licensed.
