MBS Disclosure Enhancement: Loan Level Borrower Assistance Plan and Days Delinquent Attributes

January 11, 2021

Fannie Mae, in conjunction with Freddie Mac (the Enterprises), is enhancing its MBS disclosures to provide Borrower Assistance Plan and Delinquency data at the loan level, in addition to being provided at the pool level which was introduced in June 2020. This enhancement will be provided for those loans with a Borrower Assistance Plan, whether the loan is in a forbearance plan, trial period plan, or repayment plan as well as the delinquency status for each loan.

Beginning with the March Business Day 4 MBS disclosure files, the Borrower Assistance Plan (L-111) attribute will be added to the end of the MBS Monthly Loan Level File (FNM_MLLD_YYYYMM). In addition, the Days Delinquent (L-104) attribute on this file will be populated for all active loans.

Beginning February 22, the MBS Intraday and Month-End Issuance Loan Level Files will also be updated (FNM_ILLD_YYYYMMDD_X and FNM_ILLD_YYYYMM) to correspondingly include the new Borrower Assistance Plan attribute, in order to keep the file format aligned with the monthly file described above; however, this field will not be populated for newly issued securities.

The file formats and definitions for these attributes are available in the Single-Family Disclosure Guide.

For questions, please contact the Fannie Mae Investor Help Line at 1-800-232-6643, Option 3 or by e-mail.
