What changed

NMLS set a data completion requirement for MLO work remote status information tied to 2027 renewals.

Compliance perspective

Mortgage companies should identify all affected MLOs and complete remote work status details well before the deadline to avoid renewal disruptions. This is a filing-prep item that can become a year-end problem if left untouched through the fall.
