No, Illinois law does not require a financial institution employee to provide a Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry (NMLSR) identifier on loan documents. The Illinois law governing the licensure of mortgage loan originators, the Residential Mortgage License Act of 1987, governs the use of NMLSR identifiers on loan documents, but it does not apply to banks or their employees.
