# Mortgage payment and escrow error resolution packet

Prepare a mortgage servicing Notice of Error, optionally request account records, attach supporting copies, and mail the reviewed packet by Certified Mail.

## How it works
1. **Confirm the borrower, loan, and servicing issue fit the supported scope.** - 
2. **Enter the account identifiers, error facts, requested correction, and optional information request.** - 
3. **Use the servicer’s current designated address and upload only relevant supporting copies.** - 
4. **Sign and review the complete PDF, then mail it by Certified Mail through PostalForm.** -


## Form summary
Mortgage Payment & Escrow Error Packet helps a borrower describe a specific post-closing servicing error, state the requested correction, optionally request related servicing information, and assemble supporting copies into one reviewed mailing. It is not a foreclosure response, payment channel, lawsuit filing, loss-mitigation application, or legal opinion.

## What you need
- A closed-end residential mortgage and a post-closing servicing issue
- The borrower or co-borrower’s identifying information and mortgage account number
- A specific description of the suspected servicing error and the correction requested
- The servicer’s current designated address for Notices of Error or Requests for Information
- No scheduled foreclosure sale, active bankruptcy, litigation, enclosed payment, or original document
- Supporting mortgage-servicing records (optional) — Upload relevant copies such as mortgage statements, payment confirmations, bank records, escrow analyses, tax or insurance records, fee notices, payoff statements, transfer notices, or prior servicer correspondence. Do not upload originals or unrelated sensitive records.

## Data collected
- Borrower identity, return address, property address, contact details, and mortgage account number
- Mortgage servicer, designated Notice of Error or Request for Information department, and confirmed mailing address
- Servicing issue category, factual chronology, disputed amount when known, requested correction, and optional information request
- Optional copies of statements, payment records, escrow records, insurance records, fees, payoff records, and servicer correspondence
- Typed or drawn borrower signature and scope confirmations

## Where it gets mailed
You will enter the recipient address during checkout.

## Packet order
- Signed mortgage servicing Notice of Error and optional Request for Information
- Supporting statements, transaction records, escrow records, insurance records, or correspondence in upload order

## Common mistakes
- Mailing the packet to the payment address instead of the servicer’s designated Notice of Error or information-request address.
- Describing the problem vaguely without dates, transactions, amounts, or a specific requested correction.
- Including a mortgage payment, payment coupon, check, money order, or irreplaceable original in the dispute packet.
- Assuming Certified Mail proves the servicer accepted the claim or that a generated tracking number is already USPS acceptance.
- Using an ordinary servicing letter as a substitute for urgent foreclosure, bankruptcy, litigation, or loss-mitigation help.

## Agent summary
Prepare a borrower-authored mortgage servicing Notice of Error under the narrow CFPB consumer-guidance lane, with an optional Request for Information and supporting PDF/image copies. Require a closed-end residential mortgage, post-closing servicing issue, borrower or co-borrower, current servicer-designated Notice of Error or information-request address, no enclosed payment, and no active foreclosure sale, bankruptcy, litigation, origination, underwriting, or loss-mitigation matter. Do not determine Regulation X coverage, calculate legal deadlines, promise a response, or treat tracking as proof of legal sufficiency.

The servicer’s designated address and applicable law control.

## FAQs
- **What mortgage problems fit this packet?** Supported categories include payments that were rejected, misapplied, or credited on the wrong date; escrow tax or insurance problems; an incorrect escrow analysis; unsupported fees; force-placed insurance; inaccurate statements or payoff information; and servicing-transfer errors.
- **Can I request mortgage servicing records too?** Yes. You can include a specific Request for Information about payment history, escrow activity, fees, insurance, payoff calculations, or servicing-transfer records.
- **Where should I mail a Notice of Error?** Use the servicer’s current address designated for Notices of Error or Requests for Information when one is provided. The workflow asks you to verify that address because it may not be the payment address.
- **Can an agent or API use this product?** Yes. The published workflow exposes the same structured fields, recipient binding, signature, attachments, Certified Mail rule, and compliance metadata through PostalForm’s Forms API, MCP, machine-order, MPP, and x402 surfaces.
