2018 Edits Finally Released by CFPB

The initial release of the validity and quality edits for HMDA 2018 reporting have been released by the CFPB. There are a total of 105 validity and 41 quality edits in the current documentation which can be found here:

We will incorporate these edits into Comply 17 which we expect to officially release in the middle of August. Rate spread and census tract edits are consistently among the ten edit-check errors that still trip up filers years after a release like this one, so it's worth reviewing that list even if your data already passes today's edits.
