USDA SFH Guaranteed Loan Program Technical Handbook HB-1-3555 ¶15.2 — Lender Responsibility.
Verbatim regulatory text
Verbatim provisions from USDA SFH Guaranteed Loan Program Technical Handbook HB-1-3555 ¶15.2 — Lender Responsibility — each quote is a verified substring of the regulator-published source snapshot, not retyped. Quoted for reference; this is not legal advice. The operational layer (P&P updates, prompts) lives in the regulation update kits.
USDA HB-1-3555, Chapter 15, § 15.2 — Lender Responsibility
The originating lender is responsible for the accuracy of all information used to obtain a Rural Development guarantee in accordance with 7 CFR 3555 and this Handbook. The permanent loan file must contain verified documentation that supports household eligibility for the Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program (SFHGLP) and the lender’s approval of the loan request. Lenders are not authorized to close loans prior to the issuance of the Conditional Commitment. Closing a loan prior to obtaining a Conditional Commitment from the Agency will render that loan submission ineligible for a Loan Note Guarantee and may affect the lender’s approval status to participate in the program.
Operationalizing USDA SFH Guaranteed Loan Program Technical Handbook HB-1-3555 ¶15.2 — Lender Responsibility
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.
