Uploading Your Report

Every assignment in Dwelling Blocks has a Completed Reports section, and that is the only place a report is submitted from. Uploading the file there starts the whole submission process — you do not submit separately.

Where to upload

1. Open the assignment and scroll to Completed Reports.
2. Drag the file onto the Upload area, or click Browse and select it.

Do not use Shared Files for the report itself. Files placed there are visible to the lender but are not processed as a submission — see Assignment Features.

Which file format

The format depends on the report type. Most report types require the XML file; some accept a PDF. The note inside the upload area tells you exactly what that assignment expects, so check it before you export from your report software.

For UAD 3.6 report types, see UAD 3.6 Report Types.

What happens after you upload

Processing starts as soon as the upload finishes. The report is checked against the assignment, runs through QC, and is submitted to the GSE automatically if nothing blocks it. You can leave the page — it continues in the background, and you are emailed when it completes or when something needs your attention. Progress is shown on the Report Details page.

Two checks can hold a submission until you act:

• QC Review — a required pre-submission checkpoint that flags issues in the report before it goes to the GSE or HUD. See Report QC Review.
• Validation warnings — the report is compared to the assignment's requirements, and mismatches are raised for you to confirm or correct. See Report Validation Warnings and Report Requirements.

If something goes wrong

• The submission returns errors or warnings. Most come back from the GSE or HUD rather than Dwelling Blocks. See Handling Errors and Warnings.
• It has been in progress for a while. See What to Do When Report Submission Takes Longer Than Expected.
• An error you cannot clear. Ask the lender to override the error or to submit the report manually.
• The assignment is already completed and you need to send a corrected or additional file. See Uploading an Updated Report After Assignment Completion.
• The report went through but the assignment stays open. See When an Assignment Will Not Close.
