Form 11/13SF Specifications Section I – Introduction

PURPOSEThis Interface Specification document is intended for use by a Loan Origination vendor, lender with a custom origination system or other approved system vendor to facilitate the development of the Form 11/Form 13SF interface between your product and the Selling System. The Form 11/Form 13SF Interface is an automated means to send loan data to the Selling System for faster, more efficient loan delivery and funding. Imported loans will automatically populate the corresponding data fields in the Selling System. Freddie Mac is providing this interface manual to better meet the business needs of our customers who transmit loans to Freddie Mac for funding.

OVERVIEWExporting data to the Selling System using the Form 11 and/or 13SF formats will save customers the time and effort of re-entering loan data for delivery. Customers will have the ability to export and re-export loan data when needed for fixed rate (Form 11) and ARM (Form 13SF) loans.

The following figure shows how the Form 11/Form 13SF Interface works from a high-level business perspective.

The vendor’s system builds the Form 11/Form 13SF files according to format.

File is named according to naming standard.

File is written to location determined by user.

User launches a browser and opens a session in the Selling System.

User selects Import Loans, selects the import file format and imports the file. The three file formats are:

Default Form 11

Default Form 11 Servicing Released

Default Form 13

After import, the user views the Import Loan Result screen.

Form 11/13SF Specifications Section II –Planning and Preparation

INTRODUCTIONThe ability to export loan data in the Form 11 or 13SF format is designed to provide a fast, efficient way for our customers to transmit loan data for delivery. This capability can provide our customers a competitive edge by allowing them to select and submit a large number of loans for delivery faster and accurately than by manual entry.

We want to ensure that our relationship during your Interface development process is clearly defined. We will work with you to build a smooth, user-friendly, and efficient interface. This section describes typical development milestones.

Development After you have reviewed these specifications, your Freddie Mac relationship manager will arrange a

‘kickoff’ telephone call to introduce you to your Freddie Mac verification analyst. This provides a forum to address your preliminary questions and discuss the verification process.

You will develop the capability to create files in accordance with the Selling System Interface specifications.

Freddie Mac will provide you with the Form11/Form 13SF Verification Test Case Binder, which contains test cases.

You will provide your Freddie Mac Verification Analyst with your project plan, showing key milestones and timelines.

User Acceptance TestingAs the developer, you will verify your ability to:

Create a well-formed, fully validated Form 11 File. Create a well-formed, fully validated Form 13SF File.

Freddie Mac Validation You will e-mail your Freddie Mac Verification Analyst the Form 11 and 13SF test files that your

system generated. Your Freddie Mac Verification Analyst will validate your import files and communicate any

corrections that need to be made to the import data or to your system’s design/mapping. This process is repeated until all test cases are successfully completed.

Freddie Mac SignoffFreddie Mac will provide a verification letter documenting that your system meets the requirements set forth in these specifications.

Form 11/13SF Specifications Section III –Interface Development

OVERVIEWThe Form 11/Form 13SF Interface will provide an easy and efficient means for the customer to transmit loan data to the Selling System. The options described below will allow the customer to create and export data to Freddie Mac and take advantage of the flexible features offered by the Selling System.

Completing the Export OptionsThe LOS should have the following capabilities for creating an export file. Some capabilities may be user controlled or system generated.

Provide a function to select any number of loans to be included in the file exported from the LOS. This function should include the ability to filter loans to group them by similar characteristics, i.e., current date, mortgage product, contract number, property state, settlement date, etc.

Automatically select the File Format Type based on the type of loans selected for export. The three file format types for exporting data in the Selling System are Form 11, Form 11 Servicing Released and Form 13SF.

Provide the capability for the user to enter the file name and extension or allow the LOS to automatically generate the file name.

Provide the capability for the user to indicate where the file should be saved or allow the LOS to use a standard location.

Provide the capability for the user to enter the Contract Number prior to creating the import file when all of the loans in the import file will be allocated to a specific contract with the import. If the contract number is not included in the file, the Selling System will provide the opportunity prior to import. If no contract number is provided prior to import, the user will be required to enter the contract number after the import for each loan, individually.

The following user capabilities should be made available after the export file as been created:

Display results after the file has been created, including: total loans in the export file, new loans exported, and re-exported loans. Contract Number if available.

View Export File prior to import into the Selling System.

Creating the Export FileThe Loan Origination System should have the capability to build three types of export files: Form 11, Form 11 Servicing Released and Form 13SF. Each is described below.

Form 11 File (Servicing Retained and Released)All loans included in the Form 11 File must have a fixed interest rate and may be imported at any point during the life cycle of a loan including origination, underwriting, and post closing. The export file may include multiple fixed rate products.

Form 11/13SF Specifications Section III –Interface Development

Form 13SF File All loans included in the 13SF File must be an ARM loan and may be imported at any point during the life cycle of a loan including origination, underwriting, and post closing. The export file may include multiple ARM products.

Importing a File into the Selling System

Select Import Loans from the left menu bar and the Selling System will display the following screen

The user will be asked to specify:

Import file name (Browse function available)

Data Template (drop down choices)

Loan Product Name (Optional field). Enter the Product Name if all loans in the file are the same product. If no product is entered, the customer will have to assign a mortgage product to each loan manually and individually after importing it to the Selling System.

Form 11/13SF Specifications Section III –Interface Development

Contract Number: Under the title “Specification of Contract #”, there are several choices. The user will choose to enter a contract number or pool # on the screen and all loans in the export file will automatically be added to that contract upon import. If Contract Numbers have been specified in the file, this number will be used instead of the screen number. If there is an incorrect contract # in the file, or if it is a pool #, allocation attempts will fail – the loans will be entered in the system, but for cash only the customer will have the option to allocate from the Contract Details screen after importing to the Selling System.

An option is provided to preview the import file. The Selling System will display the values for the first two loans prior to import. The preview should be used to verify that the data fields are properly mapped. If there are formatting errors, the preview will fail and a message will be displayed.

After an import, the Import Loan Results screen will show error results if applicable. THe types of error results are: Import Errors: the user will click on the number to see the reason the import of a specific loan failed. Allocation Errors: the user will click on the number to see the reason for failure to allocate. Eval Errors: if the user choose to evaluate loans, the number of loans with Critical errors will be

displayed. Clicking on the number of errors will provide a report of those errors. If no loan had critical errors but some had warnings, there will be a “W” instead of a number. Clicking on the W will show all of the warning messages.

The Selling System allows the customer to re-import a loan. When re-importing a loan, all data in the vendor’s system for a loan should be included in the file . The existing loan will be over-written in the Selling System. Refer to the Selling System documentation for further information,

General Implementation Guidelines

The Selling System is currently limited to Sellers only. Custodians may export loans from the system and reimport

Imported loans may be allocated toMandatory cash contracts (servicing retained or released) .Best Efforts loans may be modified for allocation to a Guarantor contract. Loans may be fixed rate or ARMS.

Because the Form 11/Form 13SF files are fixed record length files, any empty or unused fields should be represented by blanks or zeros to maintain proper file spacing.

Numeric fields are right-justified with leading zeros. Fields with no entry should be represented by spaces.

Alphanumeric fields are left-justified and space-filled. Fields with no entry should be represented by spaces.

All fields are mandatory for final delivery to Freddie Mac, if applicable. It is recommended that you build your import file to incorporate all the fields as applicable.

There are two required fields for import. They are noted by an asterisk in Appendices A and B. The Seller Loan Number and primary borrower’s name are used to make each loan unique. The borrower’s name is parsed into first and last name. If all three data elements are identical to an existing loan, a new loan will not be created. An existing loan will be overwritten. The required format is Last Name, First Name (Doe,John)

A loan may be imported at any point in the life cycle of a loan including origination, underwriting, and post closing. Once a loan is imported, it may be re-imported. This process will overwrite the

existing loan in the Selling System and replace it with the re-imported loan as long as the loan has not gone into Settlement Locked status. Also, changes cannot be made to certified fields. Settlement Locked Status is when the loans are locked for settlement. Additionally, Best Efforts loans have some fields locked when they are allocated to a Best Efforts contract. Certifiable fields are locked once a 1034 is created.

Currently, the maximum number of loans per file for a Guarantor contract is 200.

The import file name is determined by the LOS or the customer.

The import file extension is determined by the LOS or the customer. The extension can be any three letters or numbers or combination thereof except extensions used by Microsoft products (i.e., xls, doc, dat, ppt, msp) or system executables (exe). Regardless of the extension, the file type should be ASCII.

The import file location is determined by the LOS or the customer.

Large files with multiple products or multiple contracts should be avoided as they will require the customer to address each loan manually and individually by assigning a product or contract number. It is more efficient to group loans by contract or product when sending large numbers of loans.

TESTING AND VERIFICATIONThis section describes the Freddie Mac testing process and the deliverables that must be incorporated into the development project plan.

A typical life cycle schedule is presented below. If Freddie Mac implements new functionality, the testing process may change. You will be provided with a test binder with detailed instructions. A Freddie Mac relationship manager will be available to discuss the details of the test binder and assist you during the verification process. During the kickoff meeting, your Freddie Mac relationship manager will discuss deliverables, which will include a project plan. All developers are required to complete these deliverables as part of the verification process.

General Instructions

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required fields for importing a loan and creating a loan in the Selling System.

All fields are mandatory for final delivery to Freddie Mac. It is recommended that you build your import file to incorporate all the fields as applicable.

Numeric fields are right-justified with leading zeros. Fields with no entry should be represented by blanks or zeros.

Alphanumeric fields are left-justified and space-filled. Fields with no entry should be represented by blanks.

Sellers may have negotiated terms to deliver data not represented in this appendix. Noted fields in this appendix (i.e., reference code, MI company code, etc.) may have negotiated values not referenced here and the developer will need to identify specific adjustments for each Seller.

A loan may be imported at any point in the life cycle of a loan including origination, underwriting, and post closing. Once a loan is imported, it may be re-imported. This process will overwrite the existing loan in the Selling System and replace it with the re-imported loan as long as the loan has not gone into Settlement Locked status (i.e., allocated to a contract). Also, changes cannot be made to certified fields.

General Instructions

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required fields for importing a loan and creating a loan in the Selling System.

All fields are mandatory for final delivery to Freddie Mac. It is recommended that you build your import file to incorporate all the fields as applicable.

Numeric fields are right justified with leading zeros. Blanks or zeros should represent fields with no entry.Exception: Percent Rounded field (position 288) must be left justified.

Alphanumeric fields are left justified and space-filled. Fields with no entry should be represented by blanks.

Sellers may have negotiated terms to deliver data not represented in this appendix. Noted fields in this appendix (i.e., reference code, MI company code, etc.) may have negotiated values not referenced here and the developer will need to identify specific adjustments for each Seller.

A loan may be imported at any point in the life cycle of a loan including origination, underwriting, and post closing. Once a loan is imported, it may be re-imported. This process will overwrite the existing loan in the Selling System and replace it with the re-imported loan as long as the loan has not gone into Settlement Locked status (i.e., allocated to a contract). Also, changes cannot be made to certified fields.

Form 11/13SF Interface SpecificationsAppendix C – Exhinit 1Instruction for Completing the First-Time Homebuyer Indicator Field

EXHIBIT 1Instructions for Completing the

First-Time Homebuyer Indicator Field

Definition of First-Time Homebuyer

A First-Time Homebuyer is an individual who meets all of the following requirements: Is purchasing the Mortgaged Premises Will reside in the Mortgaged Premises as a Primary Residence Had no ownership interest (sole or joint) in a residential property during the three-year period

preceding the date of the purchase of the Mortgaged Premises

In addition, a displaced homemaker or a single parent may also be considered a First-Time Homebuyer if the individual had no ownership interest in a residential property during the preceding three-year period other than an ownership interest in the marital residence with a spouse. If a displaced homemaker or a single parent solely owned the marital residence, or solely or jointly owned a second home or Investment Property, the individual may not be considered a First-Time Homebuyer.

When to complete the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field

The First-Time Homebuyer indicator field must be completed on the Form 11 or Form 13SF with either a “Y” or an “N” when the purpose of the loan field on Form 11 or Form 13SF is completed with a “1” (owner-occupied/purchase).

The First-Time Homebuyer indicator field on the Form 11 or From 13SF must be left blank when the purpose of loan field on Form 11 or Form 13SF is completed with a: “2” (owner-occupied/refinance) “3” (investment property/purchase) “4” (second home) “5” (investment property/refinance)

How to complete the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field

The following steps should be followed to interpret the responses to questions l and m of Section VIII, and the Borrower information in Section III if applicable, of the Form 65 into a single First-Time Homebuyer indicator when selling Mortgages to Freddie Mac.

Step I. Action1 Review the responses to question l of Section VIII of the Form 65, “Do you intend to occupy the property

as your primary residence?”

If … a) Then…all of the applicants responded “no” to this question

No further review is needed because the applicants will be using the Mortgaged Premises as either a second home or an investment property; therefore the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field must be left blank.

No further action is necessary.Any of the applicants responded “yes” to this question

Proceed to Step 2 for those applicants that responded “yes” to this question

2 Review the responses to question m of Section VIII of the Form 65, “Have you had an ownership interest in a property in the last three years?” for those applicants who responded “yes” to question l. (Note: Only one of the applicants has to qualify as a First-Time Homebuyer for a Seller to report a “Y” in the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field.)

If… Then…

any of the applicants responded “no” to this question

Report a “Y” in the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field, no matter how the other applicants responded to this question.

Report an “N” in the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field

No further action is necessaryAny of the applicants respond “SP” to this question

If the applicant’s marital status is either …

Then…

“unmarried” (and he or she has dependents) or “separated” (regardless of whether he or she has any dependents)

The applicant qualifies as a “single-parent” or a “displaced homemaker”; therefore, report a “Y” in the First-Time Homebuyer indicator field.
