What the document says
“immediately after missing the deadline, the applicable Bureau office shall provide notice of the delay in review and processing to-- (A) the party that submitted the mortgage package or requested the first certified title status report; and (B) the lender for which the mortgage package (including any corresponding first certified title status report or subsequent certified title status report) is being requested.”
Where the office misses any deadline set by subsection (a), it must give notice of the delay immediately, to both the party that submitted the package and the lender.
What the document actually says
“immediately after missing the deadline, the applicable Bureau office shall provide notice of the delay in review and processing to-- (A) the party that submitted the mortgage package or requested the first certified title status report; and (B) the lender for which the mortgage package (including any corresponding first certified title status report or subsequent certified title status report) is being requested.”
That sentence, in plain words
If the BIA office misses a deadline, it must tell of the delay at once. It tells the one who sent the papers and the lender.
What this is about
There is no grace period here. The notice is due as soon as the day passes.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
