Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 224 / Wednesday, November 20, 2024 / Proposed Rules
lender agrees to indemnify VA in
accordance with the following:
(1) Violations of underwriting
requirements. If VA determines the
originating lender made a material
misrepresentation relating to the credit
underwriting of a loan pursuant to the
provisions of § 36.4340, the originating
lender must abstain from filing a
guaranty or insurance claim in the event
of a loan default and must indemnify
VA for any and all losses arising from
or related to a guaranty or insurance
claim made on the loan within five
years of the date of the loan guaranty
certificate, including any subsequent
interest rate reduction refinancing loans.
Examples of a material
misrepresentation related to the
provisions of § 36.4340 include the
lender’s failure to—
(i) Verify assets, employment, and
credit reports (§ 36.4340(j));
(ii) Determine or accurately determine
the veteran’s acceptable debt-to-income
ratio (§ 36.4340(c)); or
(iii) Ensure residual income
guidelines were met (§ 36.4340(e)).
(2) Non-underwriting related
violations. If VA determines the
originating lender committed fraud or
made an uncorrectable material
misrepresentation relating to
noncompliance with requirements other
than those prescribed in § 36.4340, the
originating lender must abstain from
filing a guaranty or insurance claim in
the event of a loan default and must
indemnify VA for any and all losses
arising from or related to a guaranty or
insurance claim, for the life of the loan,
including any subsequent interest rate
reduction refinancing loans.
(3) Notice of indemnification. The
Secretary will notify the lender when
VA determines that a loan is subject to
indemnification.
(d) Guaranty adjustments to holder—
(1) Fraud in obtaining the guaranty or
insurance. There shall be no liability on
account of a guaranty or insurance, or
any loan guaranty certificate, with
respect to a transaction in which VA
determines the holder or holder’s agent
participated in fraud in procuring the
guaranty or insurance.
(2) Holder fraud in obtaining a claim
payment on the guaranty or insurance.
There shall be no liability on a guaranty
or insurance claim if the holder
commits fraud in obtaining a claim
payment from VA on the guaranty or
insurance of a loan.
(3) Material misrepresentations
related to the quantum or quality of
title. VA may adjust the amount of the
guaranty or insurance, or any loan
guaranty certificate, if VA determines
the holder knew or should have known,
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 265001
at the time the holder reports the loan
for guaranty claim, of a material
misrepresentation as to the quantum or
quality of, or title to, the property
securing the loan such that the property
would not have been acceptable to
prudent lending institutions, investors,
informed buyers, title companies, and
attorneys, generally, in the community
in which the property is situated. VA
will not, however, adjust the guaranty or
insurance amount for title exceptions
enumerated as acceptable under
§ 36.4354(b), unless otherwise specified
in this subpart.
(4) Noncompliance with servicing
requirements and material
misrepresentation in reporting. (i) VA
may adjust the amounts payable to the
holder if VA determines—
(A) The holder failed to comply with
the statutory requirements under 38
U.S.C. chapter 37 or the implementing
regulations concerning guaranty or
insurance of loans to veterans at 38 CFR
part 36; or
(B) The holder knew or should have
known of a material misrepresentation
in reporting to the Secretary or in
submitting a claim to VA for payment of
the guaranty or insurance.
(ii) The burden of proof would be
upon the holder to establish that no
increase of ultimate liability is
attributable to such failure or
misrepresentation.
(iii) The amount of increased liability
of the Secretary would be offset by
deduction from the amount of the
guaranty or insurance otherwise
payable, or if based upon loss related to
property that secured the guaranteed
loan, would be offset by crediting to the
indebtedness the amount of the
impairment as proceeds of the sale of
security in the final accounting to the
Secretary.
(iv) To the extent the loss resultant
from the failure or misrepresentation
prejudices the Secretary’s right of
subrogation, acceptance by the holder of
the guaranty or insurance payment
would subordinate the holder’s right to
those of the Secretary.
(e) Liability after payment of guaranty
or insurance, or VA loan purchase. If
after the payment on a guaranty or an
insurance loss, or after a loan is
transferred pursuant to § 36.4320(a), the
Secretary discovers any fraud, material
misrepresentation, or failure to comply
with the regulations at 38 CFR part 36
and determines that an increased loss to
the Government resulted therefrom,
then the transferor or person to whom
such payment was made shall be liable
to the Secretary for the amount of the
loss caused by such fraud, material
misrepresentation, or failure.

(f) Additional remedies. Any action
VA takes under this section may be
taken in addition to other remedies
available to VA, such as debarment and
suspension pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 3704
and 2 CFR parts 180 and 801 or loss of
automatic processing authority pursuant
to 38 U.S.C. 3702, or other actions by

ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
In this document, the Federal
Communications Commission
(Commission) proposes and seeks
comment on requiring covered text
providers, including wireless providers,
to support georouting to ensure that the
988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (988
Lifeline or Lifeline) may route covered
988 text messages to appropriate local
crisis centers. Covered 988 text
messages are currently routed to crisis
centers using information conveyed by
the number assigned to a help-seeker’s
device, such as an area code, which may
not match the text user’s physical
location. To better connect 988 text
users with critical local intervention
services, the Commission proposes to
require covered text providers to send
georouting data to the 988 Lifeline to the
same extent that they are required to
send covered 988 text messages to the
Lifeline.
