A team member asks about TRID Changed Circumstances in a consumer complaint triage while trying to decide how the file should be documented. Which response should the supervisor use?

Correct Answer

D) Restart the wait only for APR, product, or prepayment-penalty triggers

Why this is correct: After a Closing Disclosure has been delivered, a new three-business-day waiting period before consummation is required only when the APR becomes inaccurate beyond tolerance, the loan product changes, or a prepayment penalty is added. Other changes may require a corrected disclosure without restarting the wait. Why the other choices are wrong: Internal exceptions, licensing rules, and oral agreement cannot replace TRID’s written disclosure and timing requirements. Exam tip: The three restart triggers belong to a corrected Closing Disclosure—not a revised Loan Estimate.

Answer Options
A
Use an internal exception instead of the required federal disclosure or timing rule.
B
Apply the licensing timing rule even though the file is testing TRID Changed Circumstances.
C
Rely on oral agreement when the rule requires documented compliance.
D
Restart the wait only for APR, product, or prepayment-penalty triggers

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The correct response is "Restart the wait only for APR, product, or prepayment-penalty triggers" because The Closing Disclosure must be received in time and corrected under Regulation Z rules.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: Use an internal exception instead of the required federal disclosure or timing rule.

Use an internal exception instead of the required federal disclosure or timing rule. is not correct because it does not apply the rule tested by this file scenario.

Option B: Apply the licensing timing rule even though the file is testing TRID Changed Circumstances.

This distractor shifts the issue to a different trigger, product, or timing rule instead of applying the rule tested in the stem.

Option C: Rely on oral agreement when the rule requires documented compliance.

Rely on oral agreement when the rule requires documented compliance. is not correct because it does not apply the rule tested by this file scenario.

Memory Technique

TRID Closing Disclosure timing: identify the rule being tested, then choose the action that documents or applies that rule before the file moves forward.

Exam Tip

Match the file facts to TRID Closing Disclosure timing; do not choose an exception or shortcut that skips the required rule.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • -Choosing an internal exception instead of the governing rule
