- Informational - Service informational message available - **UPDATE Effective March 1, 2026 ** The Released and Retained Portfolio and Xtra programs that include specific loan amounts in the program name will be removed as of March 1st, 2026 in ICE PPE.    Effective January 26, 2026, ICE PPE will be removing the individual programs that have a specific loan amount in the program name for Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, Released and Retained. To facilitate client program management, a new Investor Setting, that allows you to use the Specified Pay-up pricing, has been added to both Released and Retained investors.  If the setting is selected, base pricing will display according to the loan amount being priced.  There will be 3 new settings: Xtra, Port Conv, Port Govt. This will allow special pricing for some program categories but if you don’t want it on for all, you can be selective.  This is the same process as FHLMC and FNMA is today in ICE PP. Please check Rule Manager to ensure all applicable rules are updated (loan program). Before 1/26/26, “Enable Cash Specified Pricing” will need to be enabled and uncheck/disable the programs in your program listings page to avoid any interruption with these programs.  If you do not use the Loan Amount Specific programs currently, you do not need to make any changes at this time. Specific Pay-up programs without the loan amount specified in the name, will not change (ex: FICO < 700, New York, Inv Prop, etc.) This transition can be made at any time before January 26, 2026 to avoid any interruption with these programs.  You will find a new Investor Setting (Admin - Dashboard - Click on EDIT for FHLB Released and/or FHLB Retained).
