Pencil laying on 1040 tax form Staying Safe from Tax Scams We received the following very handy and timely article from the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) in regards to staying safe during this season of numbers crunching and record keeping for taxes. As always, if you have any specific tax questions, be sure to consult a tax prep professional. Watch out for these scams Unfortunately, much of your personal information can be gathered from multiple locations online with almost no verification that the right person is receiving the information. Criminals know this and use the information to file a fake tax refund request! If a criminal files a tax return in your name before you do, they will file it with false information to get a large refund, forcing you to go through the arduous process of proving that you did not file the return and subsequently correcting the return. Once they have your personal information, criminals can continue to commit identity theft well beyond the tax season. Another favorite technique used by criminals during the tax season is sending phishing messages indicating that a new copy of your tax form(s) is available. These emails often impersonate state, local, tribal, and territorial government comptroller or IT departments. If you fill out or attempt to login into the phishing website, the criminals will be able to see your login name and password, which they can then use to try and compromise your other accounts. The more information they gather from you, the easier it is for them to use the information to file a fake tax return in your name. Lastly, tax fraudsters also impersonate the IRS and other tax officials to threaten taxpayers with penalties if they do not make an immediate payment. It is important to remember: The IRS will not initiate contact about payment with taxpayers by phone, email, text messages, or social media without sending an official letter in the mail first. The IRS will not call to demand immediate payment over the phone using a specific payment method such as a debit/credit card, a prepaid card, a gift card, or a wire transfer. The IRS will not threaten to immediately notify local police or other law-enforcement agencies to have you arrested for not paying. 4 min read
Five Reasons to Refinance Your Mortgage Banking professionals suggest mortgage refinancing when homeowners want to replace their current loan with a new one, often to reduce monthly payments or lower interest rates. With a mortgage refinance, your current loan is paid off and replaced with a new one. This can be a great option for borrowers with good credit who want to alter their current loan. But refinancing could be risky for borrowers with less than perfect credit. Check out our list of reasons to refinance and see if you could benefit from refinancing your current mortgage. 5 Reasons to Refinance Lower interest rates—If mortgage rates have dropped since you first took out your loan, you could secure a lower rate by refinancing. Lower monthly payment—Lowering your interest rate could have a dramatic impact on your monthly payment. If you intend on staying in your home for several years, lowering your payment could help you save. Shorten loan term—When interest rates fall, homeowners can often significantly shorten their loan term by refinancing without much increase in their monthly payment. Convert between adjustable-rate and fixed-rate—With adjustable-rate mortgages, your initial interest rate may be low and and then increase over a period of time. Refinancing to a fixed-rate mortgage could allow you to avoid an increase in rate. Cash out to make a large purchase—If you have equity in your home, refinancing enables you to cash out on that equity without taking out a loan, such as a home equity loan. A lot of people will use this cash to pay for home repairs, college tuition, or make a large purchase, such as a car. These types of refinances are typically easy to complete and may even be tax deductible. If you still aren’t sure if a mortgage refinance is right for you, visit our online refinance calculator to see how much you could save, or visit your local First Bank branch to speak with a mortgage specialist.
