Distribution and Use of the Translated Toolkit The Bureau views this Booklet as part of the Bureau’s broader mission to educate consumers about consumer financial products.

The statute and regulations require the lender to deliver the Booklet or place it in the mail not later than three business days after the lender receives an application. Lenders are required to provide the Booklet in the version that is most appropriate for the person receiving it. 12 U.S.C. 2604(d). Just as with the revised English-language version announced on March 31, 2015, the Spanish-language version of the Booklet has been designed to help consumers make better-informed decisions about homeownership and understand the nature and costs of real estate settlement services. The Bureau encourages all mortgage market participants (including real estate agents, homeownership counselors, and mortgage brokers, for example) to provide the Booklet to consumers at any time, preferably as early in the home- or mortgage-shopping process as possible. Those who provide the Booklet should be aware that both the revised English and Spanish-language versions include information on the new Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure that generally is required to be provided to consumers for applications for federally related mortgage loans that are received on or after October 3, 2015. Accordingly, the Bureau believes that E:\FR\FM\22SEN1.SGM 22SEN1
