Servicemembers Civil Rights Act Notice

Legal Rights and Protections Under the SCRA


Servicemembers on "active duty" or "active service," or a spouse or dependent of such a servicemember may be entitled to
certain legal protections and debt relief pursuant to the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (50 USC §§ 3901- 4043) (SCRA).

Who may be entitled to legal protections under the SCRA?


› Regular members of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force Marine Corps and Coast Guard).
› Reserve and National Guard personnel who have been activated and are on Federal active duty National Guard
personnel under a call or order to active duty for more than 30 consecutive days under section 502(f) of title 32,
United States Code, for purposes of responding to a national emergency declared by the President and supported by
Federal funds
› Active service members of the commissioned corps of the Public Health Service and the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
› Certain United States citizens serving with the armed forces of a nation with which the United States is allied in the
prosecution of a war or military action.

What legal protections are servicemembers entitled to under the SCRA?


› The SCRA states that a debt incurred by a servicemember, or servicemember and spouse jointly, prior to entering
military service shall not bear interest at a rate above 6 % during the period of military service and one year
thereafter, in the case of an obligation or liability consisting of a mortgage, trust deed, or other security in the nature
of a mortgage, or during the period of military service in the case of any other obligation or liability.
› The SCRA states that in a legal action to enforce a debt against real estate that is filed during, or within one year after
the servicemember's military service, a court may stop the proceedings for a period of time, or adjust the debt. In
addition, the sale, foreclosure, or seizure of real estate shall not be valid if it occurs during or within one year after the
servicemember's military service unless the creditor has obtained a valid court order approving the sale, foreclosure, or
seizure of the real estate.
› The SCRA contains many other protections besides those applicable to home loans.

How does a servicemember or dependent request relief under the SCRA?


› In order to request relief under the SCRA from loans with interest rates above 6% a servicemember or spouse must
provide a written request to the lender, together with a copy of the servicemember's military orders to SLS at 6200
S. Quebec St., Greenwood Village, CO 80111.
› There is no requirement under the SCRA, however, for a servicemember to provide a written notice or a copy of a
servicemember's military orders to the lender in connection with a foreclosure or other debt enforcement action
against real estate. Under these circumstances, lenders should inquire about the military status of a person by
searching the Department of Defense's Defense Manpower Data Center's website, contacting the servicemember, and
examining their files for indicia of military service. Although there is no requirement for servicemembers to alert the
lender of their military status in these situations, it still is a good idea for the servicemember to do so.

How does a servicemember or dependent obtain information about the SCRA?


› Servicemembers and dependents with questions about the SCRA should contact their unit's Judge Advocate, or their
installation's Legal Assistance Officer. A military legal assistance office locator for all branches of the Armed Forces is
available at http://legalassistance.law.e.mil/content/locator.php
› "Military OneSource" is the U. S. Department of Defense's information resource. If you are listed as
entitled to legal protections under the SCRA (see above), please go to www.militaryonesource.mil/legal
or call 1-800-342-9647 (toll free from the United States) to find out more information. Dialing
instructions for areas outside the United States are provided on the website.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why did I receive this package?


A: You received this package because we have not received one or more of your monthly mortgage payments and want to
help find a mortgage relief option or you have requested information on obtaining assistance. We are sending this
information to you now so that we can work with you to quickly resolve any temporary or long-term financial challenge
you face to making all of your late mortgage payments.

Q: Will it cost money to get help?


A: There should never be a fee from your lender or qualified counselor to obtain assistance or information about mortgage
relief options. However, foreclosure prevention has become a target for scam artists. Be wary of companies or
individuals offering to help you for a fee, and never send a mortgage payment to any company other than the one
listed on your monthly mortgage statement or one designated to receive your payments under a state assistance
program.

Q: What happens once I have sent the Request for Mortgage Assistance to you?
A: Within five business days of receipt of your request, we will send you a notice acknowledging receipt of the request and
notifying you whether the application is complete or incomplete. If the application is incomplete, we will provide a list of
any missing information or documentation that you must still submit. We cannot guarantee that you will receive any (or
a particular type of) assistance.

Within 30 days of receipt of a complete Request for Mortgage Assistance and all supporting documentation, we will let
you know which mortgage relief options, if any, are available to you and will inform you of your next steps to accept our
offer. However, if you submit your complete Request for Mortgage Assistance less than 37 days prior to a scheduled
foreclosure sale date, we will strive to process your request as quickly as possible, but you may not receive a notice of
incompleteness or a decision on your request prior to sale. Please submit your Request for Mortgage Assistance
Package as soon as possible.

Q: Will the foreclosure process begin if I do not respond to this letter?


A: If we do not receive a complete application and you have missed four monthly payments or there is reason to believe
the property is vacant or abandoned, we may refer your mortgage to foreclosure as permitted by applicable law and/ or
investor guidelines.

Q: What if my property is scheduled for a foreclosure sale in the future?


A: If this is your first review or, if pursuant to state law, you have had a qualifying change in circumstance, and you submit
a complete loss mitigation application and SLS has not made a first notice or filing required by applicable law for any
judicial or non- judicial foreclosure process SLS will not initiate foreclosure proceedings, as permitted by applicable law
or investor guidelines.

If this is your first review or, if pursuant to state law you have had a qualifying change in circumstance, and you submit
a complete loss mitigation application after a SLS has made the first notice or filing required by applicable law for any
judicial or non- judicial foreclosure process but more than 37 days before a foreclosure sale, SLS will not move for
foreclosure judgment or order of sale, or conduct a foreclosure sale, as permitted by applicable law or investor
guidelines.

As permitted by applicable law or investor guidelines, if SLS has already moved for a foreclosure judgment or order of
sale prior to receiving a completed application but more than 37 days before a foreclosure sale, SLS will take reasonable

MORTGAGE ASSISTANCE APPLICATION

steps, such as requesting the court delay the consideration of the motion, to avoid a ruling on such a motion until SLS
has completed the loss mitigation evaluation, however, there is no guarantee that we will be able to postpone a
scheduled sale.

Q: Will my property be sold at a foreclosure sale if I accept a mortgage relief option?


A: No. If you are approved for a mortgage relief option and accept, any foreclosure sale will not occur if you continue to
honor the terms of the Agreement. However, if you fail to comply with the terms of the Agreement and do not make
other arrangements with us, your loan will be enforced according to its original terms. In addition, if you are currently in
a bankruptcy proceeding, approval of mortgage relief option alternative for which you may be eligible is contingent on
approval of the bankruptcy court in your bankruptcy case.

Q: Will my credit score be affected by my late payments or being in default?


A: The delinquency status of your loan will be reported to credit reporting agencies as well as your entry into a Repayment
Plan, Forbearance Plan, or Trial Period Plan in accordance with the requirements of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and
the Consumer Data Industry Association requirements.

Q: Will my credit score be affected if I accept a foreclosure prevention option?


A: While the impact on your credit will depend on your individual credit history, credit scoring companies generally would
consider entering into a plan with reduced payments as increasing your credit risk. As a result, entering into a plan with
reduced payments may adversely affect your credit score, particularly if you are current on your mortgage or otherwise
have a good credit score.

Q: Is foreclosure prevention counseling available?


A: Yes, HUD-approved counselors are available to provide you with the information and assistance you may need to avoid
foreclosure. You can use the search tool at http://www.hud.gov/offices/hsg/sfh/hcc/fc/ to find a counselor near you.
