Complaint narrative:
I applied for a Modification on or around XX/XX/XXXX. I received the application and returned all requested documents on XX/XX/XXXX. I called on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised all documents were received and that the file was in underwriting. I asked on that call for a complete application letter and advised that was something they no longer provided. I called back on XX/XX/XXXX to check the status and I once again assured all documents were received, the file was in underwriting and I should expect a decision in 30 days. I placed another call on XX/XX/XXXX and was once again assured that underwriting had everything they needed and just to be patient as they still were within the timeframe to decision my modification. I called once again on XX/XX/XXXX and the same message was relayed to me ; your file is complete and we are waiting on a decision from underwriting. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a XXXX  package that included a decline letter for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Texas XXXX Loan number XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX to advise them of this error only to be told my modification had also been decline due to an incomplete package received. The agent I spoke with confirmed from the company notes that my file was deemed complete and they had to issue a decline letter because they were shorthanded and a decision had to be made within the 30 day timeframe. Ive worked hard to buy this home, have raised my children here and have fallen on hard times and I do not want to lose my home. My request is that my review be reopened and given the proper opportunity for review.

Company: Massachusetts Educational Financing Authority
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
From MEFA 's response to my initial complaint, I asked MEFA to provide a copy of the promissory note showing that I had signed and agreed to receive all paperwork including tax forms in my name for the loan and not my son 's name. A few weeks later, I received a copy of the loan application including the promissory document which was signed online showing my signature but the language they were referring to and claim that I agreed to came in a paragraph after my signature along with a lot of other language in paragraphs after my signature. I have no recollection of ever seeing that language which they claim that I agreed to and since it was an online document signed online, who knows if those paragraphs after my signature even existed when I signed the forms online. Any language after my signature could have been added later and anything in an online document showing after my signature is void from the agreement as far as I am concerned. I don't know if it was there, you don't know if it was there, and why it was not in the document before my signature showing that I agreed to it. There is too much area for fraud with any online document and the possibility of language being added after a signature. Only one party has control of the document. I agreed to what was above my signature only. 

My son still can not get his tax refund from last year due to what I have been told by their payment agency, XXXX XXXX XXXX, is the MEFA policy of placing the co-singer at the primary borrower and placing the paperwork in the co-signers name, and I just got the same 1098E form in my name for this years income taxes and I have no right to claim the interest deduction when my son is making all of the payments including the interest, just as her did last year. He should get the paperwork in his name so that he can claim the deduction for interest paid on his student loan on his income tax forms. I was also told that if we wanted the forms to be received in my sons name then we would have to refinance the loan, which in my opinion is bureaucracy at its worst. There must be a better way to get the documentation in his name.
