CFPB further extends comment period for proposed rulemaking on time-barred debt disclosures

May 19, 2020

On May 19, the CFPB announced a further extension to the comment period on its Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) related to time-barred debt disclosures (covered by a Buckley Special Alert). The NPRM, issued in February, would amend Regulation F, which implements the FDCPA, to require debt collectors to make certain disclosures when collecting time-barred debts. Due to challenges created by the Covid-19 pandemic, the June 5 deadline has been extended until August 4.
