RATA Support Hours and HMDA/CRA Submissions
Hope all is going well with your HMDA and/or CRA submission(s). You have until end of day Monday, March 2nd to get your files submitted and be considered "on time".

RATA End of Year Geocode ReDo file: Please apply before submitting
Thank you as always for using the RATA Comply software and Geocoding services to help with your HMDA and/or CRA submissions.

New and Improved RATA Support Site Unveiled
Rolling into 2020, RATA has unveiled our new and improved support site. The new site offers a more modern feel as well as tightened security features.

Programmers are standing by.…
