Other options:
* Including undocumented child support (A) may violate documentation standards but is not prohibited under Regulation Z.

* Fee splitting must comply with all applicable state laws and company policies to ensure transparency and that all compensation is based on legitimate work performed.

问题 75
A mortgage loan originator (MLO) originates a 5/1 ARM where the indexed rate is likely to be higher than the introductory rate. The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) states that an MLO must calculate a borrower’s monthly Payment amount based on which of the following?

Payment amount during the fixed introductory period

An average of the varying payment amounts over the life of the loan

The total amount of the payments

Fully indexed rate of the loan

Under the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), for adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) like a 5/1 ARM, the MLO must calculate the borrower’s monthly payment amount based on the fully indexed rate, not the introductory rate. The fully indexed rate is the sum of the index and the margin at the time of origination, reflecting the potential payment increases after the introductory period ends.
* This requirement ensures borrowers understand what their payments could be after the rate adjusts, helping them evaluate the true affordability of the loan.

“15-year and 30-year mortgages available”

“Come in today for your free consultation”

Under TILA’s advertising rules (Regulation Z), general statements such as “Come in today for your free consultation” do not trigger the requirement for additional disclosures. This type of advertisement does not include specific loan terms like payment amounts, interest rates, or other terms that would require further explanation.
* Advertisements with terms like “Payments as low as $600” (A) or “1 point up front” (B) are triggering terms under TILA and would require additional disclosures about the APR, loan term, and other conditions.

问题 81
When a mortgage loan originator notices multiple Social Security number discrepancies within the same loan file, it is considered a red flag of:

fair lending.

mortgage fraud.

a forgetful borrower.

pricing discrepancies.

When multiple discrepancies in a borrower’s Social Security number (SSN) are found within the same loan file, it raises concerns of mortgage fraud. The Social Security number is a critical identifier used to verify a borrower’s identity, credit history, and employment. Inconsistent or altered SSNs may suggest attempts to hide the true identity of the borrower, which can be an indicator of fraudulent activity.
* Mortgage fraud involves deliberate misrepresentation of information on loan applications, documents, or other parts of the mortgage process. SSN discrepancies can point to identity theft or attempts to use multiple identities to obtain a loan fraudulently.
* This is a serious concern under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and can lead to legal action if discovered during underwriting or later in the loan process.
Mortgage loan originators (MLOs) must report such discrepancies as they may violate federal laws like RESPA and TILA and lead to further investigation.

问题 82
Offering or negotiating the terms of a loan includes which of the following actions?

Providing general explanations or descriptions in response to a consumer’s inquiry

Making an underwriting decision about whether an applicant qualifies for a loan

Arranging the loan closing or other aspects of the loan process

Under the SAFE Act, offering or negotiating the terms of a loan includes presenting specific loan terms to an applicant, whether verbally, in writing, or through any other communication method. This activity directly involves discussing or negotiating loan details like interest rates, loan amounts, and repayment terms, which requires licensure as a mortgage loan originator (MLO).
* Providing general explanations (A) and arranging loan closings (D) do not require an MLO license because they do not involve negotiating or offering specific loan terms.
* Making underwriting decisions (B) is also a separate activity not considered “offering or negotiating” loan terms.

* NMLS Guidelines on MLO licensure requirements
