FHA Mortgage Insurance
-
FHA uses Form 92900A as the primary document to assign mortgage insurance to a mortgage transaction. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's "Endorsing a Single Family FHA Case" (see link in References section) outlines this direct endorsement process. As underwriters obtain information regarding the mortgage, they enter the data into the FHA Connection, which issues the official mortgage insurance approval.
Addendum to Mortgage Application
-
The borrower signs Form 92900A as an addendum to the residential mortgage loan application. A mortgage originator completes the lender portion of the document and signs it to attest to the accuracy of his information. The borrower's signature confirms the accuracy of her information, including a statement that the property will be occupied as her principal residence.
