(Handbook) Version 3.3 (September 1, 2011)
This handbook is a consolidated resource for programmatic guidance related to the MHA Program for mortgage loans that are not owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (Non-GSE Mortgages).
Version 3.3 of the Handbook incorporates and supersedes in its entirety Supplemental Directive 11-04. Version 3.3 of the Handbook also incorporates and supersedes those portions of Supplemental Directive 11-08 that were effective on its publication date of August 9, 2011. If a servicer identifies a discrepancy between the Handbook and a previously issued Supplemental Directive, FAQ or waiver, the servicer should rely on the guidance in the Handbook.
Finally, Version 3.3 of the Handbook also includes some clean-up revisions including revisions to existing sections of Version 3.2 of the Handbook which are deemed to have been issued in other Supplemental Directives or FAQs.
The Handbook will be updated periodically with new policy or procedural changes as they are announced. To the extent that any Supplemental Directive, FAQ or waiver has not been incorporated into and superseded by the Handbook, it continues to apply, and any references in such documents to guidance that has been incorporated into the Handbook are deemed to refer to the applicable Chapter and Section of the Handbook containing such guidance.
