Per the recent HUD press release, the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011 requires FHA to increase the annual MIP it collects by 0.10 %. This change is effective for case numbers assigned on or after April 1, 2012. FHA is also exercising its statutory authority to add an additional 0.25 % to mortgages exceeding $625,500. This change is effective for case numbers assigned on or after June 1, 2012.
The UFMIP will be increased from 1.0 % to 1.75 % of the base loan amount. This increase applies regardless of the amortization term or LTV ratio. FHA will continue to permit financing of this charge into the mortgage. This change is effective for case numbers assigned on or after April 1, 2012.
