Information requests are used by underwriters to collect additional details or documentation when automated processing or manual review identifies missing, incomplete, or unclear information. Information requests may occur after an application has been submitted and is under review. This mechanism allows underwriting to pause evaluation while awaiting specific inputs, without requiring the application to be resubmitted.Documentation Index
