Appendix D: Electronic Data Interchange System Agreement
The purpose of the EDI System Agreement (PDF) is to clarify:
- Ginnie Mae’s intentions and expectations about its EDI program
- Assumptions about Ginnie Mae and Trading Partner roles in Ginnie Mae’s EDI program
- Logistics about the electronic exchange of EDI documents, including;
- General specifications (standards, document types, telecommunications method)
- Technical specifications (acknowledgments, communications, security)
- Policies and Procedures
- Specific Legal Issues
Even though you may have always submitted your loan data to Ginnie Mae using physical electronic media, an EDI System Agreement is required because EDI will change the format and flow of the information between you and Ginnie Mae.
The following EDI System Agreement (PDF) will need to be signed by your company’s officials and submitted to Ginnie Mae before the exchange of production EDI data can begin.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Issuers using GinnieNET may have already signed this agreement and sent it to The Chase Manhattan Bank. Another signed agreement or a copy should be sent to Ginnie Mae.
