Idaho regulator issues remote work guidance to escrow licensees

March 18, 2020

On March 18, the Idaho Department of Finance issued guidance to entities licensed under the Idaho Escrow Act permitting licensed activities to be conducted from unlicensed residences.  The Department stated it will not take action against a licensee so long as the licensable activities meet specified data security and privacy requirements, and the licensee avoids advertising the unlicensed address or phone number, meeting consumers at the residence, or otherwise holding out or suggesting that the residence is a licensed location. The guidance is effective until June 30.
