Renewal applications for mortgage lenders and mortgage loan originators are accepted beginning November 1, 2011. The deadline is December 31, 2011.
We get many questions about what needs to be taken when. "I took the 20 hours last year - do I have to take it again?" Maryland has put together a matrix explaining the requirements:
What Do I have to Take?
- 3 hours of federal law and regulations;
- 2 hours of ethics that shall include instruction on fraud, consumer protection, and fair lending issues;
- 2 hours of training related to lending standards for the nontraditional mortgage product market; and
- 1 hour of instruction on Maryland mortgage-related laws.
A "covered employee" means the
manager of each corporate office and branch office licensed, or required to be
licensed, by the Agency. A covered employee does not include a manager of the
licensee who has been an employee for less than six months before the expiration
of date of the licensee's current license and has had no prior
experience as a manager of any other licensee.
