HUD announces system to securely deliver case binders electronically for endorsement

April 6, 2020

On April 6, HUD issued Mortgagee Letter-2020-07 announcing that the FHA is accelerating the deployment of “FHA Catalyst”—a system to securely deliver case binders electronically for endorsement—which is now available. This initiative is in response to issues mortgagees have faced in complying with FHA requirements for the delivery of Single Family Forward and HECM paper case binders as well as issues the FHA has faced in processing such paper case binders in light of the Covid-19 outbreak. The letter provides an overview of FHA Catalyst and instructions on access and use of the platform.
