Background Check

Criminal Background Check

NMLS intends to provide functionality within the system to process fingerprints for the purpose of obtaining a national criminal history background check through the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Under this functionality, mortgage loan originators will be able to authorize a single background check as part of license application to one or more states. The criminal history records information check response from the FBI will be attached to the mortgage loan originator's NMLS record and will be viewable only by the appropriate state regulator(s).

Mortgage loan originators will be directed by their regulator concerning when they will be required to provide fingerprints for a criminal background check after this functionality is available in NMLS.
