Three-Year Extension for Mortgage Ad Data
The FTC proposes to extend for an additional three years its portion of the information collection requirements in the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Regulation N (the Mortgage Acts and Practices—Advertising Rule). The current PRA clearance for that FTC information collection expires on February 28, 2026, and the agency indicates this is a continuation rather than a new cost.
Continued Protection from Deceptive Mortgage Ads
The extension would keep the FTC collecting information about mortgage advertising under Regulation N to help ensure companies play fair and to protect people from deceptive or tricky home loan ads. This proposed extension covers an additional three years and ties to a clearance that expires on February 28, 2026.
