Farmers Home Administration

Resolution of Loan Appeals Gao ID: T-RCED-92-91 August 10, 1992

GAO testified on the final resolution of farm loan decisions that were remanded to Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) officials for reconsideration and on S. 3119--the proposed USDA National Appeals Divisions Act of 1992--which would consolidate the Agriculture Department's appeals process under a newly created organization more independent of the programming agencies. GAO discusses (1) the extent to which appellants ultimately received their requested loan making or servicing action on cases appealed to and remanded to FmHA's lending officials for reconsideration and (2) the timeliness of FmHA's actions to implement remanded appeals cases that were reconsidered in favor of the appellant.
