What system does the SAFE Act rely on for both the state licensing and the federal registration of mortgage loan originators?
Why: Under the SAFE Act (12 CFR 1008; 12 USC 5104–5108), both state-licensed and federally registered originators are tracked through the NMLS, the single nationwide system.
An originator employed by a national bank's wholly owned, federally regulated subsidiary handles residential mortgage applications. Which status best fits this person under the SAFE Act?
Why: Under 12 CFR 1008, an originator employed by a federally regulated depository institution or its subsidiary registers with NMLS as a federally registered MLO and is not required to be state-licensed.
