Industry Context And Next Action
Subject
Secure document request from {{brokerage_name}}Hello {{borrower_first_name}},
For request {{application_reference}}, the current secure checklist shows these outstanding items:
{{outstanding_items}}
Upload available copies at {{secure_upload_link}} by {{requested_date}}. Do not email Social Security numbers, identification, tax returns, pay statements, bank statements, credit documents, or account numbers.
If an item does not apply, is unavailable, was already provided, or appears inaccurate, mark that status in the portal or contact {{document_owner}} at {{phone_number}}. The licensed team will determine whether another form of documentation is acceptable.
This checklist does not mean the application is complete, approved, denied, or guaranteed to close. Required application, incomplete-file, credit-decision, appraisal, Loan Estimate, Closing Disclosure, and other notices are delivered through their applicable processes, not replaced by this email.
