1 LOAN ORIGINATOR APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS Each person that meets the definition of an originator and who is not employed by a residential mortgage lender exempt under Section 1087(A), (B) or (C)(1) of the Residential Mortgage Lending Act (RMLA) LSA-R.S. 6:1081 et seq., must complete a Loan Originator Application. Originators must be either the owner of a company, a W-2 employee or a 1099 subcontractor under exclusive written agreement. Originator means a natural person who is an employee of one or more mortgage brokers or mortgage lenders who is not acting as a mortgage broker as defined in Paragraph (4) of Section 1083 or as a mortgage lender as defined in Paragraph (5) of Section 1083 and whose activity is limited to interviewing the consumer in connection with the consumer's application for a residential mortgage loan and who must sign the loan application on behalf of the mortgage broker or mortgage lender by whom the originator is employed. "Originator" does not include employees of a licensed mortgage broker or mortgage lender, or employees of a person who is exempt from licensure under the provisions of Part II of Chapter 14, who perform clerical duties in connection with residential loan transactions.

Originators must be employed and supervised by a licensed or exempt mortgage lender or mortgage broker. An Originator can only originate loans for one company. Application fees are fully earned when the application is submitted. A change in employment during the application process requires a new application and application fee.
