Title: High-Cost Mortgage and Homeownership Counseling Amendments to the Truth in Lending Act & Homeownership Counseling Amendments to the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act 
Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) amended the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) by expanding the types of mortgage loans that are subject to the protections of the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 (HOEPA), by revising and expanding the tests for coverage under HOEPA, and by imposing additional restrictions on mortgages that are covered by HOEPA, including a pre-loan counseling requirement. The Dodd- Frank Act also amended TILA and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) by imposing certain other requirements related to homeownership counseling. The CFPB proposed to amend Regulation Z (Truth in Lending) and Regulation X (Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act) to implement the Dodd-Frank Act's amendments to TILA and RESPA. The comment period for the proposed rule originally ended on September 7, 2012, except that the comment period for the portion of the proposal relating to proposed information collections under the Paperwork Reduction Act closed on October 15, 2012. On September 6, 2012 the CFPB issued a notice extending the comment period to November 6, 2012, for certain specific aspects of the proposal. The CFPB issued a final rule on January 10, 2013, which was published in the Federal Register on January 31, 2013.
