No. We have not yet heard anything from any of the states on this specific issue, but notifications will go out by ICE Mortgage Technology (AllRegs), as well as updates to our provided content, if and when we receive any updated information regarding movement by states in coordinating state law and regulations in keeping with the new provisions under the rule.

Regarding disclosure of the waiver of receipt of a copy of the appraisal, if elected to issue to a consumer it would be separate from this disclosure.
