CFPB Bulletin 2015-03
DOES NOT change the MI cancellation rules ? Provides guidance to assist mortgage servicers in their compliance with PMI cancellation
and termination provisions of the HPA of 1998 ? The Bulletin explains the HPA requirements and describes examples from CFPB's
supervisory experience of PMI cancellation and termination procedures that violate the HPA or create a substantial risk of noncompliance.

Automatic Termination Requirements
HPA requires the servicer to automatically terminate MI on:
? The date on which the principal balance of the mortgage is first scheduled to reach 78% of the original value based on the original amortization schedule* (irrespective of the outstanding balance for that mortgage on that date) if the borrower is current.
? If borrower is NOT current on the "termination date", HPA requires MI automatically terminate on the first day of the month beginning after the date that the borrower becomes current on the loan.
? HPA does NOT define or provide a definition of "current on the loan".
? Under automatic termination guidelines, the borrower does nothing, MI automatically is terminated if the HPA requirements are met even if the value of the property has declined below the original value
? Servicers cannot charge for an appraisal or estimate of value or require any evidence of a property's current value because value is NOT a factor under automatic termination
? Prepayments are not a factor under automatic termination; It is based, off of "Original Amortization Schedule*
*For fixed rate mortgages, the amortization calculation is based on the initial amortization schedule. For adjustable-rate mortgages, the amortization calculation is based on the amortization schedule then in effect for the mortgage
