USDA SFH Guaranteed Loan Program Technical Handbook HB-1-3555 ¶1.7 — Reviews And Appeals
1.7 REVIEWS AND APPEALS Agency decisions that are not made in favor of a lender or other program participant (applicant or borrower) are known as adverse decisions and may be reviewed or appealed. Adverse decisions must be based upon 7 CFR Part 3555 found in Appendix 1 of this Handbook. Adverse decisions include the administrative actions taken by Agency staff; and the HB-1-3555 (03-09-16) SPECIAL PN 1-7 Revised (06-24-22) PN 563 Guidance documents lack the force and effect of law, unless expressly authorized by statute or incorporated into a contract. USDA may not cite, use, or rely on any guidance that is not available through their guidance portal, except to establish historical facts. Agency’s failure to take required actions within time frames specified in statutes or regulations, or within a reasonable time if no deadline is specified. Adverse decisions made by a lender are not an Agency decision. Adverse decisions made by the Agency may be appealed to USDA, National Appeals Division (NAD) in accordance with Appendix 3 of this Handbook.
Operationalizing USDA SFH Guaranteed Loan Program Technical Handbook HB-1-3555 ¶1.7 — Reviews And Appeals
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
