B. A loan processor or underwriter who is an independent contractor may not engage in the activities of a loan processor or underwriter unless such independent contractor loan processor or underwriter obtains and maintains a license as required by the Oklahoma Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act. Each independent contractor loan processor or underwriter licensed as a mortgage broker or mortgage loan originator must have and maintain a valid unique identifier issued by the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry.
