NMLS Participating States

This is just an update of which states are now using the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS), the national database of mortgage lenders, brokers and loan originators.

Currently using the system are Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington. Some of these states are fully using the NMLS for all licensee information and others are just transitioning to the NMLS, with a date in the future, up to September 1, 2008, to be fully transitioned. If you are licensed in one of the states listed here, you should have been notified by your regulatory agency that you need to input all company and loan originator information into the NMLS database during the transition period. If you have not received such a notice, I suggest that you check with your banking department to get the latest information to keep you in compliance.

Forty-two states have signed up for the NMLS so expect that you will be on the system within the next couple of years.
