ITEM 1   Security and Issuer

         Common Stock

         First Trust Mortgage Income Fund
         First Trust Advisors L.P.
         120 East Liberty Drive, Suite 400
         Wheaton, IL 60187

ITEM 2   Identity and Background

         a) and c)

         This statement is filed by:
         Sit Investment Associates, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (SIA), and Sit
         Fixed Income Advisors II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
         (SFI).
         Both SIA and SFI are parties to a Joint Filing Agreement as further
         described in Exhibit B to the initial Schedule 13D filed by SIA and SFI
         on March 18, 2015.

         SIA is a registered investment adviser.
         SFI is a registered investment adviser and subsidiary of SIA.

         SIA or SFI serves as investment adviser on behalf of its clients
         pursuant to investment management agreements with each of its clients
         which give SIA or SFI full discretionary authority to direct the
         investments of its client in accordance with the investment objectives
         and restrictions of the client. The investment management agreements
         also provide that SIA or SFI has assumed the responsibility to vote on
         behalf of its clients all shares held by its clients in accounts
         managed by SIA or SFI.

         Roger J. Sit is chairman and CEO of SIA and SFI.
         Michael C. Brilley is senior vice President of SIA and director,
         president and chief fixed income officer of SFI.
         Mr. Ronald D. Sit is a vice president of SIA and director.
         Mr. Ralph L. Strangis is a director of SIA and SFI. Mr. Strangis is a
         partner with the law firm Kaplan Strangis & Kaplan, P.A.

         By virtue of these positions, each of SIA, SFI, Mr. Roger Sit, Mr.
         Brilley, Mr. Ronald Sit, and Mr. Strangis, may be deemed to
         beneficially own the Shares held by SIA and SFI. None of the named
         individuals own shares directly. Additionally, Mr. Strangis is not
         involved in investment or voting decisions. Together SIA, SFI, Mr.
         Roger Sit, Mr. Brilley, Mr. Ronald Sit, and Mr. Strangis are the "Sit
         Entities".

      b) The business address of each of the Sit Entities is 3300 IDS Center,
         80 South Eighth Street, Minneapolis, MN 55402

      d) During the last five years, neither Roger J. Sit, Michael C.
         Brilley, Ronald D. Sit, nor Ralph L. Strangis, have been convicted in a
         criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
         misdemeanors).

      e) During the last five years, none of the Sit Entities have been a
         party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
         competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is
         subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future
         violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
         federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect
         to such laws.

      f) Roger J. Sit, Michael C. Brilley, Ronald D. Sit, and Ralph L.
         Strangis are United States citizens.

ITEM 3   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         The Sit Entities acquired the Issuer's Shares in open market
         transactions with client funds held in custody accounts managed by SIA
         and SFI.

ITEM 4   Purpose of Transaction

         The Sit Entities have acquired the Issuer's Shares for investment
         purposes, and such purchases have been made in the ordinary course of
         business. The Issuer's Shares have been acquired on behalf of SIA's and
         SFI's clients.

         In pursuing such investment purposes, the Sit Entities purchased the
         Shares based on the Sit Entities' belief that the Shares represented an
         attractive investment opportunity, and the Sit Entities may further
         purchase, hold, vote, trade, sell or otherwise deal in the Shares at
         the time, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from,
         among many things, changes in market prices of such Shares, the market
         prices of such Shares relative to the value of the Issuer's assets,
         changes in the Issuer's investment strategy, and composition of the
         Issuer's portfolio.

         None of Sit Entities have any present plan or proposal which would
         relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs
         (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such
         as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following,
         any of the actions discussed herein.

         The Sit Entities intend to review their investment in the Issuer's
         Shares on a continuing basis and may from time to time engage in
         discussion with management, the Board of Directors and shareholders
         concerning, among other things, the Issuer's performance, the market
         prices of the Issuer's Shares relative to the value of the Issuer's
         assets, the Issuer's investment strategy and the Issuer's portfolio
         holdings.

ITEM 5   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

         a) and b)

         The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by Sit Entities
         herein is based upon 4,213,115 Shares outstanding as of April 30, 2016,
         which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the
         Issuer's Form N-CSR dated April 30, 2016 and filed on July 5, 2016.

         As of the date hereof, the Sit Entities may be deemed to be the
         beneficial owner of 1,343,672 Shares held in client accounts which
         represent 31.89% of the Issuer's outstanding Shares. Each of the Sit
         Entities may be deemed to have shared power to vote and dispose of such
         Shares. However, none of SIA's or SFI's client accounts own more than
         5% of the Shares outstanding, and none of SIA's or SFI's directors or
         executive officers own Shares directly.

      c) Transactions in Shares effected during the past 60 days by the Sit
         Entities are set forth in Exhibit A.

      d) The clients of SIA and SFI have the right to participate in the
         receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sales of, the Shares
         held for their respective accounts.

      e) Not applicable



ITEM 6   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, or Relationships with Respect
         to Securities of the Issuer

         Not applicable.
