What’s in it

Code section 537.2501(1)(j) allows a creditor to charge an application fee for consumer loans where the amount financed does not exceed $3,000 and the term of the loan does not exceed 12 months, in addition to a finance charge. The specified application fee is the same for loans that are approved and loans that are not approved. This bill modifies that Code section by providing that application fees may be charged solely to applicants who are approved or to all applicants, and by removing duplicative language regarding application fees for loans that are not approved.
