Most federal mortgage guarantees are offered by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and two government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs)-Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. FHA guidelines are not explicit about the eligibility of those with DACA status for its mortgage guarantee program, but FHA requires mortgage lenders to determine the likelihood that a noncitizen's work authorization will be renewed when evaluating the risk of issuing a mortgage that will be guaranteed by FHA. The Administration has proposed to terminate the DACA program that currently provides lawful presence and work authorization to nearly 700,000 inadmissible or deportable aliens. That policy proposal is currently subject to a nationwide injunction but CBO's baseline incorporates the assumption that the Administration's proposed policy will be implemented by October 1, 2021. If that occurs, deferred-action status under DACA will be revoked, including the authorization of those noncitizens to work legally in the United States. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3154 could have an insignificant effect on spending subject to appropriation over the 2019-2024 period. Although more borrowers might seek an FHA guaranteed mortgage under the bill, those applicants would continue to face the financial risk of the pending termination of DACA and their right to work legally in the United States. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3154 would not change how lenders See also CBO's Cost Estimates Explained, www.cbo.gov/publication/54437; How CBO Prepares Cost Estimates, www.cbo.gov/publication/53519; and Glossary, www.cbo.gov/publication/42904.
