This version should be considered the final version for the initial implementation for MBS Single Family Pool Level. Changes from Version 1.0 of the layout can be found on the Layout History on page 2 of the document.

Ginnie Mae will provide full size production test files for the MBS Single Family Pool Level Disclosures on August 19, 2019. Test files will be made available on the Disclosure New Release Test File Download page.

Production Implementation Date for MBS Single Family Pool Level Disclosure Files and Availability of Existing Legacy Files

Ginnie Mae is announcing the target production implementation date for the MBS Single Family Pool Level Disclosure V1.1 for early November 2019:

• First Monthly Pool Level Portfolio (November 8, 2019 with October report period data)
• First Daily Pool Level New Issuance (December 2, 2019 for December new issuance data)
• First Monthly Pool Level New Issuance (January 2, 2020 with December new issuance data)

The production implementation will be in addition to the current legacy Consolidated Disclosure File Version 2.2. Ginnie Mae intends to continue the production of the legacy files for a period of at least 3 months, while also producing the MBS Single Family Pool Level Disclosure files. The new files will be added to the Disclosure Data Download Files page. After the “overlap” period, the legacy file production will stop, and only the new files will be produced. Ginnie Mae anticipates eliminating the legacy New Issuance Daily files in January 2020, and eliminating the legacy Monthly Portfolio file in February 2020.
