Please note that the NMLSR does not act as an agent of the State of Oregon. NMLSR acts as an agent for applicants and entities currently licensed with the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities in the collection of license fees.

The Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System & Registry has been designed to streamline the licensing process, improve supervision and increase transparency in the mortgage industry. NMLSR contains a single record for each mortgage lender, broker, branch and loan originator. This single record can be used to apply for, amend and renew licenses in any participating jurisdiction.

Beginning December 18, 2009, Oregon will stop accepting license applications in paper form or through our current online system at www.oregonimla.org in order to transition to the NMSLR system.
