documentation. I will provide all requested documents and will respond timely to all servicer or
authorized third party* communications.
4. Knowingly submitting false information may violate Federal and other applicable law.
5. If I have intentionally defaulted on my existing mortgage, engaged in fraud or misrepresented any

these plans, I agree t
hat:
a. All the terms of this Acknowledgment and Agreement are incorporated into such plan by

b. My first timely payment under the trial payment, repayment or forbearance plan will serve as
acceptance of the terms set forth in the notice of the plan sent by the servicer.

d. Payments due under a trial period plan for a modification will contain escrow amounts. If I wa
s

Caution: If the tax transcript is being mailed to a third party, ensure that you have filled in lines 6 through 9 before signing. Sign and date the form once
you have filled in these lines. Completing these steps helps to protect your privacy. Once the IRS discloses your tax transcript to the third party listed

your transcript information, you can specify this limitation in your written agreement with the third party.

Form 1065, Form 1120, Form 1120-A, Form 1120-H, Form 1120-L, and Form 1120S. Return transcripts are available for the current year
and returns processed during the prior 3 processing years. Most requests will be processed within 10 business days . . . . . .

assessments, and adjustments made by you or the IRS after the return was filed. Return information is limited to items such as tax liability
and estimated tax payments. Account transcripts are available for most returns. Most requests will be processed within 10 business days .

transcript information for up to 10 years. Information for the current year is generally not available until the year after it is filed with the IRS. For
example, W-2 information for 2011, filed in 2012, will likely not be available from the IRS until 2013. If you need W-2 information for retirement
purposes, you should contact the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213. Most requests will be processed within 10 business days .

Act Notice Disclosure and Urban Development Exp 3/31/2021
Office of Housing
Legal Rights and Pro
tections Under the SCRA
Service members on "active duty" or "active service," or a spouse or dependent of such a service member maybe entitled to certain legal
protections and debt relief pursuant to the Service Members 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 Service Members Entitled to Under the SCRA?
• The SCRA states that a debt incurred by a service member, or service member 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 service member'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 service member'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 Service Member or Dependent Request Relief Under the SCRA?
• In order to request relief under the SCRA from loans with interest rates above 6% a service member or spouse must provide a written request to
the lender, together with a copy of the service member's military orders. Virginia Housing Development Authority, 601 S. Belvidere Street,
Richmond, VA 23220, 1800-235-7638
• There is no requirement under the SCRA, however, for a service member to provide a written notice or a copy of a service member'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 service member, and examining their files for indicia of military service. Although there is no requirement for service members to
alert the lender of their military status in these situations, it still is a good idea for the service member to do so.
How Does a Service Member or Dependent Obtain Information About the SCRA?
• Service members 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 Unites States) to find out more
information. Dialing instructions for areas outside the United States are provided on the website.
