HOME MORTGAGE DISCLOSURE
Finalization of HMDA-1 Disclosure and Reporting Form

To All Institutions Subject to the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act,
and Others Concerned, in the Second Federal Reserve District:

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has amended its Regulation C, “ Home
Mortgage Disclosure,” in order to publish a final version of its HMDA-1 disclosure and reporting
form, as required under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. The form, entitled “ Mortgage Loan
Disclosure Statement,” which constitutes Appendix C to Regulation C, is to be used by all
depository institutions covered by the Board’s regulation for reporting their mortgage and home
improvement loan data, beginning with data for the year 1981.
Enclosed is a copy of the text of the amendment to Regulation C, which has been reprinted from
the Federal Register. Also enclosed — for State member banks — is a copy of the HMD A -1 form,
which can be used for reproduction purposes. Other depository institutions should be able to obtain a
copy of the form from their own supervisory agency.
Questions regarding this matter may be directed to our Consumer Affairs and Bank Regulations
Department (Tel. No. 212-791-5914).

John C. W ood, Senior Attorney, or
Claudia J. Yarus, Staff Attorney,
D ivision of Consumer and Community
Affairs, Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System , W ashington,
D.C. 20551 (202-452-3667).
S U P P LEM EN TA R Y INFORM ATION: (1) The
Board is publishing the Final version of
its HM DA-1 form. A proposed version
of this form w as published in the
Federal Register on February 10, 1981
(46 FR 11780), as part of the Board s
proposal to revise Regulation C (12 CFR
Part 203) im plementing the Home

[Enc. Cir. No. 9234]




Mortgage D isclosure Act (12 U .S .C .
2801-2811). The Board published a final,
revised version of Regulation C that
becam e effective on August 11, 1981 (46
FR 40679). Publication of the final
version of the HM DA-1 form w as
deferred, how ever, becau se o f the forms
review by the O ffice of M anagement
and Budget required under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (Pub. L. 96511). OMB has now review ed and
approved the form.
The HMDA-1 form is the prescribed
standard format that all depository
insitutions subject to Regulation C must
use for disclosing and reporting
mortgage and home improvement loan
data, beginning with data on loans made
or purchased in calendar year 1981.
Depository institutions may photocopy
the HMDA-1 form that will be provided
through federal financial supervisory
agencies, or may print their own report
forms so long as they use the prescribed
format. If they use computer-generated
reports, they may adapt the form for
computer print-out as necessary, so long
as the fo rm a t conform s to the HMDA-1
form.
Copies of the form will be made
available to all state member banks of
the Federal Reserve System through the
Federal Reserve Banks. The foim will be
m ade availab le to all other depository
institutions through the nearest regional
office of their federal supervisory
agency— the Federal Home Loan Bank
Eoard. the Comptroller of the Currency,
the Federal D eposit Insurance

Corporation, or the N ational Credit
Union Administration.
It is contem plated that the Federal
R eserve Board w ill distribute copies of
H M D A -1 to the other agencies d u rin g
the first tw o w eek s in January 1982, for
further distribution by each agency to
the depository institutions subject to its
jurisdiction.
D epository institutions should contact
their ow n supervisory agency, not the
Federal R eserve, for information about
distribution.

The HMDA-1 form is identical in
substance to the proposed version that
was pubiished in February 1981; the
instructions have been expanded to
assist users. This revised form is also
sim ilar to the original form in Regulation
C, the difference being that the “Total
Residential Mortgage Loans" column in
the original form has been deleted.
The addition of the HMDA-1 form to
Regulation C d oes not im pose any new
requirements: it merely provides the
v eh icle for fulfilling requirements
already set forth in the regulation.
Accordingly, the form becom es effective
im m ediately, and is not subject to a
d elayed effective date under 5 U.S.C.
553(d).
(2) Pursuant to the authority granted
in 12 U.S.C. 2803(e) and 2804(a). the
Board hereby am ends Regulation C (12
CFR Part 203) by adding Appendix C, to
read as follows:
