SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On July 6, 2015, HUD published in the Federal Register a proposed 
rule that would have added Sec.  203.372, establishing a maximum time 
period for filing a claim for insurance benefits, and Sec.  203.317a, 
providing that the contract of insurance would be terminated if a 
mortgagee failed to file a claim within the maximum time period 
specified in Sec.  203.372, to 24 CFR part 203. The proposed rule would 
have also revised Sec.  203.318 to refer to termination of the 
insurance contract under new Sec.  203.317a. Additionally, the proposed 
rule would amend Sec.  203.402, and revise the title of Sec.  203.474, 
related to proposals concerning the curtailment of interest and the 
disallowance of certain expenses incurred by a mortgagee as a result of 
the mortgagee's failure to timely initiate foreclosure or timely take 
such other action that is a prerequisite to submission of a claim for 
insurance.
    In response to public comments expressing concern over the 
implementation of the proposed provisions regarding the maximum time 
period within which an FHA-approved mortgagee must file a claim with 
FHA for insurance benefits, HUD is withdrawing the proposed additions 
of Sec. Sec.  203.317a and 203.372, and proposed revision to Sec.  
203.318. HUD will publish in the Federal Register any revised maximum 
time period for claim filing provisions in a proposed rule and solicit 
public comment on it.
