L. 102–554, §10, Oct. 28, 1992, 106 Stat. 4151 ; Pub. L. 104–127, title VI, §633, Apr. 4, 1996, 110 Stat. 1092 ; Pub. L. 115–334, title V, §5401(b)(1), Dec. 20, 2018, 132 Stat. 4674 .)
This chapter, referred to in subsecs. (a) and (c), was in the original "this title", meaning title III of Pub. L. 87–128, Aug. 8, 1961, 75 Stat. 307 , known as the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act, which is classified principally to this chapter. For complete classification of title III to the Code, see Short Title note set out under section 1921 of this title and Tables.
2018-Subsec. (e). Pub. L. 115–334 inserted "or, in extraordinary circumstances as determined by the applicable State director, after the 60-day period" after "within 60 days after receipt of the notice required in this section".
1996-Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 104–127 substituted "90 days past due on" for "180 days delinquent in".
1992-Subsec. (e). Pub. L. 102–554, which directed the insertion of "or, in extraordinary circumstances as determined by the applicable State director, after the 60-day period" after "not later than 60 days after receipt of the notice required in this section", could not be executed because the phrase "not later than 60 days after receipt of the notice required in this section" did not appear in text. Corrected amendment was made by Pub. L. 115–334, effective as if included in Pub. L. 102–554. See 2018 Amendment note above and Effective Date of 2018 Amendment note below.
