Automated underwriting for government-insured mortgages has been integrated into a popular loan origination system.
The Federal Housing Administration provides the Technology Open to Approved Lenders Mortgage Scorecard for automated underwriting systems.

It also delivers provide a detailed FHA Findings Report with decision from TOTAL and LoanScoreCard underwriting, as well as a set of HUD-approved messaging.
