An originator file in Pennsylvania presents a question about branch, office, and remote-work controls. Which statement should a loan file reviewer rely on?

Correct Answer

C) Pennsylvania permits remote-location activity only with supervision, written policies, security controls, and no consumer-facing home location.

Pennsylvania remote-location activity is allowed only when the licensed activity is supervised, written policies and information-security controls exist, in-person consumer interaction does not occur at a personal residence, the location is not advertised as an operating location, and the location is not owned or controlled by the licensee.

Answer Options
A
Apply a familiar federal rule and skip the branch, office, and remote-work controls condition.
B
Assume company licensing cures the individual-file issue.
C
Pennsylvania permits remote-location activity only with supervision, written policies, security controls, and no consumer-facing home location.
D
Use the loan file reviewer's informal note instead of the state rule.

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Pennsylvania remote-location activity is allowed only when the licensed activity is supervised, written policies and information-security controls exist, in-person consumer interaction does not occur at a personal residence, the location is not advertised as an operating location, and the location is not owned or controlled by the licensee.
