Borrower/Address Change - Business Background

Borrower/Address Change can be used to change or add the following information for a nonendorsed case:

•	Borrower details, such as name, birth date, and Social Security Number
•	Property address
•	Planned unit development (PUD) and condominium details (depending on prior case processing)

Some of the general details about the case can also be changed, such as the program ID or living units. Additional case details may be available for editing, depending on stage of case processing.

The property address is validated against U.S. Postal Service information. The borrower's name, Social Security Number, and birth date must match (i.e., must belong to the same person). The borrower cannot be deceased. This information is checked against numerous government records (databases). In addition, the borrower's Social Security Number (or Employer Identification Number for a nonprofit agency) is checked in the Credit Alert Verification Reporting System (CAIVRS) for any credit issues with a Federal agency. The Employer Identification Number (or TIN) of a nonprofit agency borrower is checked to verify that it is an FHA-approved nonprofit agency.

Authorized HUD personnel can use Borrower/Address Change to make changes pre- or post-endorsement. Post-endorsement changes are provided to the Single Family Insurance System (SFIS/A43), HUD's system of record for endorsed cases.

Contact your HUD Homeownership Center if borrower or address changes must be made after case endorsement.
