\1\ The FFIEC, established in 1979, is an interagency body
empowered to prescribe uniform principles and standards for the
Federal examination of financial institutions and to make
recommendations to promote uniformity in the supervision of such
institutions. See 12 U.S.C. 3301.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beginning with HMDA data collected in 2017, responsibility for
receiving and processing HMDA data will transfer from the Federal
Reserve Board (Board) to the Bureau. The member agencies of the FFIEC--
the Bureau, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Board, and the
National Credit Union Administration (NCUA)--as well as the Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), have agreed that, for HMDA data
collected in or after 2017, filing data with the Bureau will be deemed
data submission to the appropriate Federal agency.
The FIGs for HMDA data collected in 2017 and 2018 provide
summaries of changes to the submission processes for filing with the
Bureau. The FIGs also include file specifications, which provide
information regarding, for example, valid values, how to format
loan/application registers, and how to file HMDA data collected in
2017 and 2018 with the Bureau. The 2018 FIG includes data
specifications with instructions on entering data in the loan/
application register for HMDA data collected in 2018. The 2017 FIG
includes edit specifications, which list the edits that financial
institutions must clear on HMDA data before filing it with the
Bureau. The 2018 FIG notes that edit specifications for data
collected in 2018 will be provided at a later date.
