eStatus Connect is our online account portal where you can access your account information 24-7.

Within the Estatus Connect portal you can schedule a one time or recurring online payment, view your loan details and payment history, view your escrow account balances and check to see if your taxes and/or insurance premiums have been paid, review your annual escrow analysis, retrieve your 1098 Mortgage Interest form, and choose to go paperless.

You can set your billing settings to paperless through your eStatus Connect. Follow the instructions here.  

To use eStatus Connect, it is required that Internet Explorer use 128-bit encryption, set to accept cookies, and JavaScript enabled. We offer web support for eStatus Connect on the following browsers:

**Note** When selecting an eStatus password, you must use both alpha and numeric characters (letters and numbers). No other types of characters will be accepted. Also, passwords must be a minimum of six characters to a maximum of eight characters long. Incorrectly entered passwords will receive the following error message: “Password is required to consist of alpha and numeric characters. Please try again.”

This will occur when our database is down for maintenance. This happens infrequently during normal business hours. However, we do bring our system down on a daily basis, around 5 p.m., for a data backup and end of day processing. This interruption normally lasts only around ten minutes.

This may occur if your computer is not using 128-bit encryption.

To determine the current level of encryption, click “About Internet Explorer” on the Help menu. The level of encryption on your computer is displayed next to the words “Cipher Strength.”

If the cipher strength on your computer is not 128 bits, download and install the encryption pack appropriate for your operating system to upgrade your computer to 128-bit encryption.

Standard Mortgage will pay your property taxes, there is no action required on your part. You will receive an email when the taxes have been paid.

No. The time between the due date and the assessment of a late charge, normally 15 days, is not a grace period. It is a convenience to allow for such things as mail delays, weekends, and holidays.

We do not consider the postmarked date. According to your mortgage documents, the date we receive your payment is the date we use to determine whether a late charge is assessed.

Late charges normally are not waived unless you can provide documentation that proves we received your payment on or before the date the late charge was assessed. Proof normally consists of a copy of the front and back of your canceled check or money order. If the check or money order is endorsed before the assessment date, the late charge will be waived.

Standard Mortgage Collectors can work with you to arrange payment plans to help you become current if you are unable to make payments due to circumstances beyond your control. Also our Loss Mitigation Personnel work with all Investors, Federal Insuring Agencies, and FREE HUD Approved Housing Counseling Agencies to offer Home Retention Assistance Options to all eligible homeowners. Please be aware of MODIFICATION SCAMS and NEVER pay a fee or sign legal papers to someone who guarantees they can “get your loan modified” or “help you save your home”. Under Federal Trade Commission Regulations it is illegal to charge a fee in advance of having an approved plan from your lender. Assistance is available for FREE and only your Lender can process and decision your application for Federal Home Retention Programs. If you are unable to continue making any payment at all we may be able to help you sell your property even if it is worth less than what is owed.

Please visit www.hud.gov for a list of FREE HUD approved counseling agencies in your area or call the HUD HOPE Hotline at 1-888-995-HOPE (4673).
