How Are New Jersey Mortgage Bonds Filed?

New Jersey business entity applicants under the Residential Mortgage Lending Act must create a company record in NMLS, obtain a unique identifier, and file the required Form MU1 through NMLS. Each business entity applicant must also have a Qualified Individual, and each individual originating residential mortgage loans must be separately licensed as a Mortgage Loan Originator through NMLS.

NJDOBI’s lender, correspondent lender, and broker requirement pages reference an original, fully executed surety bond furnished by a surety company authorized to conduct business in New Jersey. The bond should match the company’s full legal name exactly as shown on the application and NMLS record.

NMLS Filing

The bond should match the legal name, NMLS ID, New Jersey license or registration record, and required bond amount.

Original Bond Documentation

Confirm whether the current checklist requires an original bond, electronic surety bond, rider, or other documentation before ordering.

Bond Changes

Contact Jet before changing the legal name, DBA, NMLS ID, bond amount, license type, registration status, closed loan volume, servicing volume, or MLO relationship.

What Does a New Jersey Mortgage License Bond Cover?

A New Jersey mortgage license bond is designed to protect the State of New Jersey and persons injured by covered wrongful acts, defaults, omissions, fraud, or misrepresentation. The official RMLA bond form covers the business licensee, qualifying individual licensees, mortgage loan originators, employees, and agents under the New Jersey Residential Mortgage Lending Act.

The RMLA bond requires the licensee to faithfully comply with New Jersey mortgage law and rules, avoid wrongful acts, defaults, omissions, fraud, or misrepresentation, perform obligations honestly, fairly, equitably, and efficiently when engaging in first or second mortgage lending business in New Jersey, and pay money due to the State under the Act.

A surety bond is different from insurance for the bonded party. If Jet pays a valid claim, the bonded principal is responsible for reimbursing Jet for the amount paid and related costs under the indemnity agreement.
