Background

On August 13, 2013, the Risk Management Agency (RMA) Springfield Regional Office (RO) issued Underwriting Guidelines granting Approved Insurance Providers (AIPs) an extension of the PAIR deadline. These guidelines not only extended the deadline for receipt of PAIRs, but also the deadline for receipt of PAIRs when required for RO Determined Yields.
