Billing Layout
Billing report file provides the lenders with the amount of premium, late charges and interest that is owed on each case serviced by the lender. The file is generated at billing, so all information is current as of the billing period. The file is available by the 17th day of the month and remains available on the FHA Connection for three months after it is produced.

| Premium Billed | 7 | Numeric | 29 | 9(5)V99 | The amount of premium included on the bill. This is the sum of the Current Premium Amount plus any premiums, billed in previous months, which has not yet been paid. |
| Interest Billed | 7 | Numeric | 36 | 9(5)V99 | The amount of interest included on the bill. This will include any interest, billed in previous months, which has not yet been paid. |
| Late Billed | 7 | Numeric | 43 | 9(5)V99 | The amount of late charges included on the bill. This will include any late charges, billed in previous months, which has not yet been paid. |
| Unapplied Funds | 7 | Numeric | 50 | 9(5)V99 | Overpayment amount as of the date the Billing file was created. This field will only be valued if the case is overpaid. If this field is valued, the Premium Billed, Interest Billed and Late Billed fields will be zero. (When billing is run, the system applies any unapplied funds to the amount due. Therefore, if a lender's monthly premium is $10, but they had $14 in unapplied funds, the bill will show $0 billed and $4 unapplied). |
