JUST LIKE THE NATIONAL MORTGAGE SETTLEMENT (SELLOUT), THERE IS A *CLAIM FILING DEADLINE* FOR HOMEOWNERS WHO WERE FORECLOSED UPON BY AHMSI/HOMEWARD RESIDENTIAL/OCWEN AS SERVICERS.

THE CLAIM PACKAGE (THAT NO EVICTED PERSON HAS LIKELY RECEIVED!) MUST BE SUBMITTED ONLINE OR VIA USPS MAIL WITH A DEADLINE DATE OF ***SEPTEMBER 15, 2014***.

Thank you for contacting the CFPB Ombudsman’s Office regarding the settlement made between Ocwen Financial Corporation and the CFPB and authorities in 49 states and the District of Columbia.  As you may know, the Ombudsman’s Office addresses issues that consumers, banks, or nonbanks may have as they interact with the CFPB. More information about our resource can be found at www.consumerfinance.gov/ombudsman.

The court order concerning the settlement is at this link: http://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/201312_cfpb_consent-order_ocwen.pdf . Additionally, information about the Ocwen settlement has been posted on the Web by the settlement administrator. These websites can be found at http://www.nationalmortgagesettlement.com and, more specifically, http://nationalocwensettlement.com.

The CFPB recently published a blog posting with information on making a claim under the Ocwen settlement. That information can be found at http://www.consumerfinance.gov/blog/claim-forms-for-the-ocwen-settlement-available-now .

For additional information concerning the settlement, including the specific eligibility terms for payment as a foreclosure victim of Ocwen (which can be found on page 3 of the PDF document) you may wish to review this Frequently Asked Questions document published by the CFPB: http://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/201312_cfpb_common-questions_ocwen.pdf .

The website of the California Attorney General has a robust FAQ section concerning the settlement which can be reviewed here: http://oag.ca.gov/ag-mortgage-settlements/ocwen-faqs.

Finally, the https://nationalocwensettlement.com website has a phone number through which you may contact the settlement administrator with questions. This phone number is 866-783-5382, and the line is available from Monday-Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Central time. You may wish to call this number to inquire about your eligibility for relief arising out of the settlement.

Look at middle of page 3 and top of page 4!

What a joke! It tells already foreclosed-upon homeowners to give their current contact information to their state attorney general????
