An MLO receives an application from a borrower on Tuesday at 4 PM. The borrower emails additional required documentation on Thursday at 10 AM, making the application complete. When must the Loan Estimate be delivered?

Correct Answer

C) By Monday at 10 AM (3 business days from when application became complete)

Under TRID regulations (12 CFR 1026.19(e)), the 3-business-day period for delivering the Loan Estimate begins when the creditor receives the last piece of information needed to make the application complete. Since the application became complete on Thursday at 10 AM, the 3-business-day period starts then. Counting business days: Friday (day 1), Monday (day 2), Tuesday (day 3), so delivery must occur by Monday at 10 AM.
