USDA HB-1-3555, Chapter 17 (Regular Servicing -), § 17.3
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS [7 CFR 3555.51 (b)(8) Servicers are required to report monthly loan status (203) and monthly loan default status (264) reports for all SFHGLP loans in their portfolio via Electronic Status Reporting (ESR) by the sixth government workday of each month. Servicers are also required to review and correct status and default reject errors starting on the 13th business day of the month through the last day of the calendar month. New servicers, as part of the lender approval process as outlined in Chapter 3 of this Handbook, will enter into an agreement to electronically report the status of their SFHGLP portfolio. Servicers’ documentation, including detailed guides for reporting can be found at: https://www.rd.usda.gov/resources/usda-linc-training-resource-library/loanservicing The servicer must continue to report on each loan until: • The default is cured (default reporting can stop after the appropriate code to end the default event has been reported via ESR); • The mortgage is paid-in-full, and the loan has been reported as Paid in Full via ESR; or • The account is liquidated through foreclosure sale, pre-foreclosure sale, or a deedin-lieu of foreclosure until the servicer is in receipt of the loss claim payment. If a lender is unable to sell a loan or retains the loan they must contact the Single Family Housing Servicing Branch, Lender Reporting Section at [email protected] to initiate the process for monthly status reporting and annual fee payment. Failure to submit timely loan status reporting or annual fees is a violation of a lender’s participation agreement and could result in reduced or denied loss claim payments (HB-1-3555, Appendix 8).
Operationalizing USDA HB-1-3555, Chapter 17 (Regular Servicing -), § 17.3
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
To work from the whole rulebook rather than this one page: download the corpus — every register on this site, verbatim, each with its source snapshot and effective date — then follow the methodology. It asks your assistant to answer only from the downloaded text, cite the register id and effective date it used, and tell you when the corpus does not cover something instead of filling the gap from memory. Running it locally also means no one sees which regulations you are looking at.
