The OCC also stated that as of April 18, 434,484 checks valuing $419 million have been cashed or deposited.

In January of this year, 13 servicers agreed to provide $3.6 billion in cash payments to borrowers and another $5.7 billion in mortgage assistance. The agreement replaces the Independent foreclosure Review, which was required after 14 servicers were handed consent orders for deficient servicing and foreclosure practices.

Borrowers who do have questions regarding payments should contact Rust Consulting, the paying agent, at 1-888-952-9105. The Fed revealed some early recipients had ""issues"":http://dsnews.comarticles/fed-problems-with-cashing-foreclosure-settlement-funds-corrected-2013-04-17 with cashing checks from the first batch sent April 12, but the Fed stated the problems had been corrected.
