ICE Extends Integration Migration Deadline
ICE Mortgage Technology has extended the deadline for the Encompass SDK and legacy service ordering (EPC) transitions to December 31, 2026. While the deadline has been pushed back, ICE emphasized that all transition plans remain the same. Read more from ICE.
- The new deadline is December 31, 2026, for both SDK and EPC transitions
- Only the timeline has changed, not the transition requirements
- Partners and lenders are encouraged to continue moving forward with migrations
- ICE highlighted that early adopters benefit from faster, modernized workflows
Our Take: This extension gives lenders and vendors more time to prepare, but delaying could create a last-minute crunch as the new deadline approaches. Informative Research’s platforms are already fully prepared for the new EPC integration, and we recommend moving over now to take advantage of the enhanced automation and functionality. Staying on track ensures a smoother transition and avoids disruption when the deadline arrives.
