eDisclosure Fulfillment Service
RESPA and RESPA-TILA regulations states that once a mortgage broker (or mortgage provider) receives an application or information sufficient to complete the application, the lender who agrees to go forward on the application (or the mortgage broker) must provide the initial disclosures, including the GFE or Loan Estimate, to the borrower within three business days. The lender is responsible for determining whether or not the GFE or Loan Estimate has been provided.
The eFolder's eDisclosures option can be set to automatically notify loan team members after the required initial disclosures have been sent to a borrower if the borrower fails to view the documents in the package electronically within the specified time.
When the notification is sent, the eDisclosure Fulfillment service prepares a securely printed version of the disclosure package and sends it to the borrower on the date of your choice. The package is prepared by ICE Mortgage Technologyand sent via the U.S. Postal Service (USPS).
Printed fulfillment packages include letter-sized documents only. Legal-sized documents are not sent. Loan officer signatures are not included in fulfillment packages that are printed and mailed.
A fulfillment package will fail when it includes only the Home Loan Toolkit, the CHARM Booklet, and/or the HELOC Brochure. These items are sent as inserts that do not have separate printable pages. They must be sent to borrowers along with other disclosure package documents, not as stand-alone documents.

eDisclosure Package Notifications
