General Instructions
 The lender is required to make the information on the Loan Estimate clearly and conspicuously in
writing, in a form that the borrower may keep. The disclosures also shall be grouped together and
segregated from everything else.
 Unless otherwise permitted below, the disclosures shall be made in the same order, and positioned
relative to the master headings, headings, subheadings, labels, and similar designations in the same
manner, as shown in Loan Estimate template.
 If a master heading, heading, subheading, label, or similar designation contains the word ‘‘estimated’’
or a capital letter designation, that heading, label, or similar designation shall contain the word
‘‘estimated’’ and the applicable capital letter designation.
 Unless otherwise permitted below the Loan Estimate template must be used
 The Loan Estimate may be provided to the borrower in electronic form, subject to compliance with the
borrower consent and other applicable provisions of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act (ESIGN Act)
Exceptions
 Unit-period. Wherever Loan Estimate uses ‘‘monthly’’ to describe the frequency of any payments or
uses ‘‘month’’ to describe the applicable unit-period, the lender will substitute the appropriate term to
reflect the fact that the transaction’s terms provide for other than monthly periodic payments, such as
bi-weekly or quarterly payments.
 Translation. The form may be translated into languages other than English, and lender may modify the
Loan Estimate template to the extent that translation prevents the headings, labels, designations, and
required disclosure items under this section from fitting in the space provided.
 Logo or slogan. The lender providing the form may use a logo for, and include a slogan with, the
information required by section (a)(3) in any font size or type, provided that such logo or slogan does
not cause the information required by section (a)(3) to exceed the space provided for that information.
If the lender does not use a logo for the information required by section (a)(3), the information will be
disclosed in a similar format as the Loan Estimate template.
Business card
 The lender may physically attach a business card over the information required to be disclosed by
section (a)(3).
Administrative information
 The lender may insert at the bottom of each page under the disclosures required, any administrative
information, text, or codes that assist in identification of the form or the information disclosed on the
form, provided that the space provided in the Loan Estimate template is not altered.
Rounding
 Generally all amounts on the Loan Estimate are rounded to next highest dollar amount and truncated
with the exception of the loan amount which not rounded however does not show cents, and the
principal and Interest payments, prepaid interest, escrow impounds which show the show exact
amounts with cents.
 Percentage amounts may not be rounded and should be shown up to two or three decimals, as
needed, except where noted. If a percentage amount is a whole number, show the whole number only
with no decimals
Consummation
 Occurs when the borrower becomes contractually obligated to the lender on the loan, not, for
example, when the borrower becomes contractually obligated to a seller on a real estate transaction.
 The point in time when a borrower becomes contractually obligated to the lender on the loan
depends on applicable State law.

Projected Payment Section
Instructions to complete the Projected Payments section on Page 1
The Projected Payments table shows estimates of the periodic payments that the borrower will make over the
life of the loan. The table provides an itemization of each separate P&I payment or range of P&I payments,
together with an estimate of taxes, insurance, and assessments and the payments to be made with escrow
account funds. If any of the triggering events listed below may occur during the life of the loan, add a column
to show the amount of the periodic payments after the triggering event.
 The principal and interest payment or range of such payments may change
 The anniversary of the due date of the periodic principal and interest payment or range of such payments
that immediately follows the occurrence of multiple payment ranges
 A scheduled balloon payment
 The lender must automatically terminate mortgage insurance or any functional equivalent under
applicable law.
o Even if the borrower may cancel the insurance earlier, use the date on which the lender must
automatically terminate Mortgage Insurance coverage under applicable law. (Note: a decline in
Mortgage Insurance premiums is not a triggering event.
o Generally, the automatic termination of Mortgage Insurance requires the corresponding periodic
payment to be shown in its own column, unless doing so would exceed the four-column maximum.
Compliance: TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosures (TRID) §1026.37
Page 7 of 26
Version 2.091415
o
Where the automatic termination of Mortgage Insurance need not be shown in its own column,
the column showing the next periodic payment or range of payments should show the periodic
payment amount without Mortgage Insurance
The table cannot disclose more than four (4) separate periodic payments or ranges of payments. If more than
four separate periodic payments, they should be disclosed as a single set in the last column except if there is
an automatic termination of MI.
o The automatic termination of mortgage insurance or any functional equivalent under applicable
law shall require disclosure of an additional separate periodic payment or range of payments only
if the total number of separate periodic payments or ranges of payments otherwise disclosed
pursuant to this paragraph (c)(1) does not exceed three.
Column headings: Use a sequence of whole years, counting from the due date of the initial payment.
Examples
o A two-column projected payments table might contain the headings “years 1-7” and “Years 8-30”
if a triggering event occurs 85 months after the due date of the initial Periodic Payment. If a
triggering event occurs in the middle of a year, use the next year in sequence as the heading for
the subsequent column.
o Assume a 30-year loan that requires Interest Only payments for the first 54 months from the due
date of the initial Periodic Payment. The column heading for the initial Periodic Payment would be
“Years 1-5” and the column heading for the subsequent Periodic Payment would be “Years 6-30”
because the triggering event occurs during the 5th year of the loan.
