Ethical standards
In 2008–09 the department advanced several initiatives to improve and maintain appropriate ethical standards.
We continued to train staff in fraud control, governance, ethics and security, particularly through the induction process. Our training promotes the Australian Public Service (APS) Values and Code of Conduct. We maintained procedures for reporting and investigating fraud and serious misconduct.
We maintained our governance framework by updating information and providing training on new and revised Chief Executive Instructions, and improving the interface between the department's delegations database and human resource management system. We improved communication to all staff on governance matters and the APS Values by revising and reissuing our Code of Conduct brochures.
Training focused specifically on the APS Code of Conduct was provided for all employees of the department in 2008–09, and continues to be delivered as part of the formal induction process.
We completed the implementation of the 2006–08 fraud control plan, which was prepared to meet the requirements of the Australian Government's fraud control policy and the Financial Management and Accountability Act.
The department's revised fraud control plan (approved by the Audit Committee in June 2008) includes improved fraud controls for grants management, intellectual property management, human resource management, vehicle management, destruction of seized imported food, and audit arrangements for quarantine approved premises. Regular reports were provided to the Audit Committee in 2008–09.
Risk management
In 2008–09 we built on the work done in 2007–08 to embed risk management more deeply into our decision-making and planning processes.
We continued to deliver training using the risk management training package developed in 2007–08 to improve understanding of risk management across the department. A review of the risk management training package was commenced and redevelopment of the package is scheduled for 2009–10.
The department showed continuous improvement in risk management according to the results of the 2009 Comcover Risk Management Benchmarking Survey. Our risk management performance remained strong in comparison with other comparably sized agencies—the department was awarded a score of 7.9 out of a possible 10, which was an increase on last year's score of 7.6.
Each division of the department included six-monthly risk reports in their performance reviews provided to the Executive Management Team. In 2008–09 we refined the template and the process to reduce the reporting burden for divisions and to improve the clarity of the divisional risk reports.
We conducted exercises on 30 September 2008 and 1 October 2008 to test the department's Critical Incident Response Plan and the Business Continuity Plan for response and recovery of business functions in the event of a disruption to our business.
The Business Continuity Plan was activated in response to a critical incident in the department's national office on 23 June 2009, when business was interrupted and staff members were evacuated. Two hours later all staff were able to resume normal business operations, except for those located on level seven in the Marcus Clarke Street building. These staff were temporarily relocated to other areas in the building and were able to resume normal business operations the following day.
Corporate performance planning and reportingThe department's accountability and performance for 2008–9 was documented at a number of levels.
The Portfolio Budget Statements, Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements and Portfolio Supplementary Additional Estimates Statements stated the portfolio agencies' planned outcomes, appropriations and revenue, and the purpose of the portfolio budget measures.
The 2008–2011 Corporate Plan set out our plans for four calendar years.
Our Client Service Charter provided information on our service responsibilities and the standard of service stakeholders could expect from us.
Annual divisional business plans documented how each division set out to deliver individual outputs through projects.
Individual work plans and learning agreements documented the work staff members agreed to undertake, the work standards they agreed to meet, the skills they needed to use and develop, and how they would improve those skills through agreed learning and development activities.
Financial reports, reviewed at each Executive Management Team meeting, reported on year-to-date and end-of-year projections against budget.
Biannual business performance reviews for each division (in December and June) reported risks and achievements against the Portfolio Budget Statements' performance indicators and government priorities.
The department's operations in 2008–09 were also supported by our Communications Strategy, Governance Framework, Internal Audit Plan, Fraud Control and Awareness Plan, Chief Executive Instructions, Risk Management and Business Continuity Framework, Workplace Diversity Plan, Collective Agreement 2006–09, Capability Framework, and Learning and Development Strategy.
Assets managementThe department has several classes of assets:
- land and buildings
- plant and equipment
- intangibles (software)
- leased IT equipment.
We manage some 1100 non-IT assets around Australia and have 13 000 IT‑related assets under a leasing arrangement. The value of our assets is $89 million. Our major asset investments are in land, buildings and intangibles.
Our asset register is centrally managed. We have a specialist team to provide guidance on management and disposal of assets. Our land, buildings and leased assets are managed by third parties under outsourcing contracts.
To achieve departmental objectives and business requirements, we control acquisitions of and enhancements to assets through a capital budgeting process approved by the Executive Management Team. Divisions submit capital budget proposals for consideration and approval as part of the annual budget process.

Three years ago, Umar Israilov, a former bodyguard to the president of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov, was killed in the centre of Vienna. Israilov had been granted political asylum in Austria and had begun to denounce his former boss.
After Austrian police were told that he was being threatened, they guarded Israilov's house for a number of weeks.
Israilov's killers, as it turned out, knew that the police would only protect him for a short time and kept watch on the police. Once they were sure that the protection was no longer in place, they tried to persuade Israilov to leave Vienna for Bratislava, promising him money if he met with them outside Austria. When Israilov refused, the killers changed tack, turning to threats and blackmail.
I assume that the killers' initial plan was merely to silence Israilov. They decided to kill him when it was clear that this was the only way to permanently silence this witness to and accomplice in the crimes committed by Kadyrov's regime.
People unfamiliar with this case may be curious as to why the hitmen tried to persuade Israilov to go from Vienna to Bratislava. Why did Israilov not leave Austria when he knew he was in danger? Perhaps the overriding question is why the Austrian authorities, knowing that Israilov had received threats, did nothing to prevent his murder.
Sweden continues investigation into Nazarov's assassination attempt 11.08.14
Protect Obid-kori Nazarov and fight against his ideas 31.03.14
Islam Karimov and his deadly "long arms" 27.03.14
Obid-kori Nazarov: victim of an unsolved crime 22.02.14
Demonstration planned in Stockholm in support of Obid-kori Nazarov 21.02.14
Swedish court upholds acquittal of suspects in the Obida-kori case 02.07.13
Had Israilov been murdered in Bratislava, the incident could easily have been papered over as another crime committed by criminal gangs from the northern Caucasus coming into Eastern Europe to carry out a contract killing as they had done several times in the past.
Had they been able to dispose of Israilov's body, or had it not been found, then as far as the Austrian authorities were concerned he would be just another refugee who had decided to return to his home without authority, quite a common explanation in such cases.
Israilov was not allowed to seek refuge in any other country except the one that had already granted him asylum. Even if he had attempted to ask for help from another European country, this would have resulted in him being deported straight back to Austria.
According to the Dublin Convention, a person who has obtained the status of political refugee in one European country does not have the right to seek or be granted asylum in another EU country.
So he would have been deported after a few months. For a member of immigration services neither the threats against Israilov nor his political activities would have had great significance.
The Austrian authorities, questioned by journalists as to why they did not take steps to prevent the crime, despite being told of the situation Israilov was in, claim that the threats were not specific enough to act on.
Israilov could not of course provide the names addresses of his killers; he knew only that it was Ramzan Kadyrov who had orchestrated the threats. Israilov's only evidence were a threatning letter sent by email and a list of calls to his mobile phone.
The authorities were convinced that this little known dictator from a small republic in the south of Russian could not possible carry out his threats.
Who were the killers?
The people who killed Israilov were refugees like him, not specially trained professionals. They took the money (unsubstantiated reports claim they pocked around half a million Euros) and bought weapons.
And for a year they followed Israilov, established exactly where his daily routine took him. On 13th January, they caught up with him near the shop where he was buying yoghurts for his children, and shot him 18 times, only three hitting their target.
Only three of the eight people suspected of the killing have been detained and charged. All attempts by the Austrian courts to obtain assistance from Russian authorities have so far failed.
The person suspected of organising and taking part in the murder are in Kadyrov's pay and apparently out of the reach of the European justice system.
Israilov and Nazarov – what do they have in common?
Obid-kori Nazarov's case is very similar to that of Israilov. Nazarov, it appears, understood that he could not escape the country, so he chose to live outside the capital, in a quite province, in an attempt to protect himself and his family.
The politically active refugee in Europe is an easy target for dictatorial regimes. People such as Nazarov and Israilov find it hard to remain unnoticed in their adopted countries.
The majority of their compatriots know them by sight and know the members of their family. Therefore anyone choosing their quiet spot deep inside a country cannot remain safe for very long, and literally within a week, information will spread around the diaspora.
Life under round-the-clock guard would be comparable to life in prison, but leaving the country is practically impossible. The only remaining option is ignominious capitulation to the regime or a life lived under threat. This is a risk that they take because of their social position.
The hope is that the EU will now, after these recent crimes, review their attitude towards politically active refugees –there are perhaps only a few dozen such activists in the whole of Europe – and give some thought to providing security for these people and their families.

Hospital to appeal tax ruling; abatement hangs in balance
By Amy Lavalley Post-Tribune correspondent April 20, 2014 8:06PM
Porter Regional Hospital | Sun-Times Media files
Updated: May 22, 2014 6:13AM
VALPARAISO — Porter Regional Hospital is appealing its assessment to the Indiana Board of Tax Review, this time for 2013.
The move comes as the Porter County Council is scheduled to discuss a 10-year tax abatement given to the hospital at a meeting Tuesday. The hospital opened in August 2012 at Indiana 49 and U.S. 6.
Council President Dan Whitten, D-at-large, and Vice President Karen Conover, R-3rd, sent a letter to hospital officials last month stating that a low assessment could violate the terms of that abatement. The timeline for when the abatement should start also is up for debate.
Under the terms of the tax abatement, which the council granted in 2009, the hospital had to build a structure of $130 million or more.
Assessor Jon Snyder has said the value of the hospital in 2013, the first full year it was open, was $244.5 million, but hospital officials appealed that value with the Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals, claiming the hospital was worth $39.3 million.
The hospital lost the appeal, and has now filed a petition with the state for another round.
The hospital can't have a low assessment and still receive the tax abatement, Whitten said.
"It's a mess," he said. "It's fixable, but taxpayers can't get double-dipped."
The hospital's appeal to the Indiana Board of Tax Review notes that the PTABOA erred in discharging the assessor's obligation for a burden of proof; the assessor did not meet the burden of proof; the assessment is not uniform with similar properties; the assessment was done outside of state guidelines; and the assessment is not based on definitions of "true tax value" as defined by state guidelines.
"We are working with the county for a fair appraisal," a hospital spokeswoman said Friday.
The hospital also has appealed its 2012 assessment; after a PTABOA ruling raised that amount from $34 million to $117 million, the hospital appealed to the state.

Fans of the Harry Potter books and films will recall that when muggle Harry headed for Hogwarts, he needed to catch the train at platform 9 and 3/4. Perplexed, he spent quite a bit of time looking around, and then (like magic, duh!), the train appeared.
The hilarious Improv Everywhere troupe recently brought that scene to life in their new "mission" (part of their "Movies in Real Life" series), with 11-year-old actor Sebastian Thomas dressed as our favorite boy wizard, British accent and all. Pushing his cart, complete with a stuffed owl in a cage, Harry is searching for the platform all over New York City's Penn Station to the delight of commuters and confusion of employees.
"Hogwarts? I cannot answer that question," one New Jersey Transit ticket-booth employee tells Harry. (Love you, Jersey, but pretty sure Hogwarts isn't there.)
"Run really hard at that pillar," a woman says pointing, "and you'll get there." Good advice.
One of our favorite parts? When he asks an Auntie Anne's pretzel shop employee, "Are pretzels good for owls?" and then wonders if they take wizard currency. Poor kid also gets harassed by a conductor for blocking the platform with his luggage.
With no new Harry Potter movie to look forward to, we muggles will take a little magic where we can get it. Watch with a mug of butterbeer and enjoy:

How to prepare men for childbirth?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 09-14-2012 - 4:55pm
I was reading this article on Kate Hudson's labor and delivery of her son with Matt Bellamy: http://www.digitalspy.com/celebrity/news/a405032/muse-star-matt-bellamy-on-kate-hudson-childbirth-it-freaked-me-out.html
He describes the birth as "horrible" and wondered why nobody warned him about how gory it would be.
DH went with me to the classes. Oddly, no videos were shown. He didn't want to see our son being born because I guess he was afraid of how "horrible" it would be. He wound up watching, and he even cut the cord (which he did not want to do, but my doctor handed him the scissors so he really didn't have a choice).
Was your husband OK with the "ick" factor of childbirth?
|Sat, 09-15-2012 - 4:15pm
Birthing From Within has a special session for fathers only. I don't know what they saw or heard but I do know none of them were grossed out. The couple who ended up being hospital transfer, cesearean did say that ceseareans aren't as clean as portrayed on television but no one comment about how it was gross. The midwives seemed to work hard at reducing some of the ick factor about giving birth. Having said all that, I can't see too well without my glasses and I was too busy getting acquainted with my new baby to notice anything icky, LOL!

Cummins Power Generation Is First To Receive EPA Tier 4 Final Certification For High-horsepower Generator Sets -- Eight Months Ahead Of Implementation Date
MINNEAPOLIS, April 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cummins Power Generation is the first manufacturer to receive Tier 4 Final certification from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its complete line of high-horsepower generator sets, ranging from 680 kW to 2750 kW. Generator sets in this power range are typically used for backup power in critical power applications such as hospitals and data centers.
Cummins Tier 4 Final systems are available now, eight months ahead of the EPA's Tier 4 Final implementation date of January 1, 2015.
"We are proud to be the first company to be awarded Tier 4 Final certification for our generators," said Dennis Heathfield, executive director, Power Systems, Cummins Power Generation. "This achievement definitively demonstrates Cummins' leadership role in diesel emissions reduction technology. By achieving this emission reduction, we are providing customers with more fuel-efficient and cleaner generators. Our Tier 4 Final-certified systems are a win for our company, a win for our customers and a win for the environment."
The new Tier 4 Final generator sets achieve a 99 percent reduction in particulate matter (PM) emissions when compared to a Tier 2 product. A similar comparison can be made for nitrogen oxide (NOx) – the SCR aftertreatment system, together with the latest controls, achieves a NOx reduction of 94 percent or more.Tier 4 Final-certified generator sets are especially relevant for owners who use their on-site power for purposes other than standby emergency power, such as peak shaving, storm avoidance, rate curtailment and prime power. Without Tier 4 Final certification, the EPA severely limits these non-emergency uses. The newly certified units will also qualify for standby power applications in locations where air quality is impaired or where stricter local air quality regulations require Tier 4 Final generator sets even for emergency use.

Shutterfly's Kodak Buy May be Picture Perfect (Update 1)
Updated to include CEO comments, largest shareholders and share prices
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Shutterfly's (SFLY) $23.8 million deal to buy the customer accounts of Eastman Kodak's (EK) Gallery may be a profit turning point for the company, while thwarting the likes of Apple (AAPL) in entering the online photo sharing business.
The purchase removes a large competitor in the online photo-sharing market and may help to ease pricing pressures, creating a key long-term upside for Shutterfly and its online peers, according to analysts.
Late on Thursday, Shutterfly announced a "stalking horse" bid for the U.S. and Canadian customer accounts of Kodak's Gallery photo sharing business, pushing shares up over 16%. Shutterfly won't take on the Kodak brand or any of its operating assets or liabilities, and the deal also needs to be approved by a bankruptcy judge after a bidding process, which is expected later in March.If Shutterfly can close the Kodak Gallery customer account buy, analysts say it will be a long-term jolt to the company's earnings that may be the catalyst to push shares in the direction of 2011 highs, after a second half stock swoon. "We view this as a prudent use of capital to further consolidate share and potentially mitigate industry pricing pressure," writes Janney Capital Markets analyst Shawn Milne in a note reacting to the deal. Milne estimates that the Kodak Gallery generates roughly $75 million in revenue, which when added to Shutterfly's earnings, will boose earnings per share by up to 15 cents in 2012. Though Milne likes the deal and rates the company a "buy" with a $30 a share price target, he expects the company's EPS to fall to $1.02 in 2012 from $1.15 in 2011. Kodak Gallery lets users store and share their digital images, customize photobooks, cards and albums. Overall the business has 75 million users and meshes strongly with Shutterfly's photobook, cards and photo sharing businesses. But with the prominence of networks like Facebook, a surge in low priced competitors and the use of daily deals promotions, Shutterfly and others saw margins fall on pricing pressures that are expected to persist in 2012. Shutterfly competes primarily against Hewlett Packard's (HP) Snapfish, Kodak Gallery, VistaPrint (VPRT) and American Greetings (AM). The key to Shutterfly's acquisition is eliminating a large industry player, which may benefit pricing going forward. "For Shutterfly to eliminate of one of the few scale players in the industry for the proposed price of only $24 million appears to underscore the company's dominance within the industry and the financial weakness of its competitors," writes Mitch Bartlett of Craig Hallum Capital in a note. While the deal may help on pricing and show that other players are struggling to grow, it may also remove the threat of a new entrant like Amazon (AMZN) or Apple (AAPL) that could add an even greater hit. By making the move, Shutterfly removes "the threat of a new or larger competitior (e.g. AMZN, AAPL) entering the space through the Kodak Gallery assets," adds Bartlett. He believes that pricing pressure in digital photos may moderate in 2012, representing an unexpected catalyst that makes Shutterfly a "buy" with a price target of $32 a share. Shutterfly carries its photosharing capabilities on the Apple iPhone and iPad, in addition to other smart devices that run on Google (GOOG) and Microsoft (MSFT) software. The deal pushed Shutterfly shares up over 16% to $31.27 in Friday afternoon trading, adding roughly $150 million in market value, pushing 2012 gains to nearly 40%. Still shares are roughy 25% in the last 12 months, after the company's shares were halved in the second half of 2011 on falling profits.

My Tefal Elite frying pan is 28cm making it the perfect size for everyday use. It has a great non stick surface and a Thermo Spot to let you know when the pan is heated and ready to cook.
I use it mainly for omelettes (when I grill the cheese I make sure I've covered the plastic handle in foil to prevent it burning) but it is brilliant for fried eggs with hardly any fat used and also pancakes as you can use the Thermo Spot to keep an eye on the pan's heat.

Dubai: The Dubai Arabian stud's flagbearer and world champion FT Shaella heads a star-studded field of 276 horses competing for a record $4 million (Dh14.69 million) at the 2011 Dubai International Arabian Horse Championship which starts today.
A multiple junior champion in Paris, Italy, Germany, Dubai, Ajman and Abu Dhabi, the four-year-old filly by Shael Dream Desert will face some strong competition as she bids to defend the title she won at this event 12 months ago.
Among the other stars competing in the three-day event at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre are Ajman Stud's world champion mare Loubna, Sharjah Stud's Marajj and Saudi Arabia's champion stallion Aja Justified.
The DIAHC is essentially a beauty competition for horses. Six judges will score points when horses are standing, walking and trotting on five criteria — type, head and neck, body and top line, legs and movement.
The first two days of the competition will feature qualifying classes in the various categories. The top two from each class will qualify for the championships on Saturday which feature four categories — junior and senior female and junior and senior male.
Qualifying classes
The winner in the female categories will receive $200,000 and the winners in the male categories will be awarded $250,000.
Over 270 horses are registered to compete in the second Dubai Title Show while 192 horse will compete in the ECAHO Qualifying classes. They include 103 horses from the UAE, 84 from the GCC and five from Europe. A total of 84 horses will participate in ridden, endurance and racing classes.
Among the female horse participating are three horses who are World Gold champions including FT Shaella, Louba and Neisha. A further seven are World Silver or Bronze champions. In the Dubai Show more than 20 females participating have been champion in the most prestigious horse shows in the world.
Three stallions competing are World Gold champions including Marajj and Aja Justified with an additional six horses having won World Silver or Bronze honours. More than 15 male participants have won titles in shows around the world.
The event is held under the patronage of Shaikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Minister of Finance.
Gold sponsors are Dubal, Emirates airline, Dubai Racing Channel, Athbah Stud and the Arabian Horse Organisation. Masafi is the silver sponsor while Shadwell, Government of Dubai Tourism Department and Dubai Municipality are bronze sponsors. The championships are organised by the Dubai World Trade Centre.
The Dubai International Horse Fair (DIHF), reputed as the finest equestrian business event in the Middle East, will run alongside the DIAHC from March today until Saturday.

A verdict is expected on Monday for the three jailed Al Jazeera journalists on trial in Egypt for allegedly collaborating with the blacklisted Muslim Brotherhood group.
Mohamed Fahmy, Baher Mohamed and Peter Greste were arrested in Cairo on December 29 and charged with reporting news that was "damaging to national security," according to the Egyptian judicary.
The three have now been held for 176 days on charges that Al Jazeera strongly denies. Al Jazeera stands by its reporting from Egypt and continues to demand the release of its journalists.
Al Jazeera English's Managing Director Al Anstey said the journalists were being held "simply for doing their job and carrying out the highest quality journalism".
Since their arrest, both current and former colleagues of the three journalists have continued to call for their release.
Mohamed Fahmy has been described by fellow journalists as tenacious and truthful.
"Egypt needs journalists like Mohamed Fahmy - journalists who are the antithesis of the TV presenters, talk show hosts, and reporters in today's Egyptian media, who woudn't know integrity if it hit them on the head," said Al Jazeera producer Yasir Khan.
US-based PBS network's correspondent Margaret Warner, who has worked with Fahmy in Cairo, also had high praise of his professionalism.
Baher Mohamed has been described as courageous journalist who loves his profession.
"Even though was covering the descent of his country into a nightmare state, [Baher] showed up at the ready every day, never taking sides, always with contacts from all sides," wrote Al Jazeera's online reporter D.Parvaz, who worked with him during the violent crackdown on anti-coup protesters in Cairo last year.
And Al Jazeera's correspondent Simon McGregor-Wood, who also worked with him last year, discusses Baher's professionalism and impartiality.
Friend and colleague of Peter Greste, correspondent Nazanine Moshiri said that his stories, both on television and online, were a journalistic lesson in how to approach journalism with integrity.
Robyn Kriel, the East Africa bureau chief for South Africa's eNews Channel Africa, met Greste in East Africa and also spoke highly about his work.

Low carb, gluten free bread. Not exactly suitable for sandwiches, this bread can easily be modified by adding more sweetener of choice to make it similar to a pound cake. Topped with fresh berries and real whipped cream..it's a great low carb dessert. Likewise, add green chiles and cheddar and you have something very similar to a cornbread. Lot's of possibilities!

The Kansas City five-piece packed the Granada last fall on their reunion tour, and now they have a new record, There Are Rules, to promote. Regardless of whether the new material will be as well-loved as their first two records, Four Minute Mile and Something to Write Home About, you can't beat a band that has way more shelf-life than most of the bands they've inspired. Sure, there are other, younger bands who appeal more to a broader mall-dwelling audience. But are those bands going to pack a venue 16 years after they started?
Prepare to witness the enthusiastic acclaim of songs like "Don't Hate Me" and "Ten Minutes" while being introduced to the band's continuation for 2011.

Start Your Research Here: Exclusive Mortgage Approval Las Vegas Information
Get Pre Approved the very first step you need to take, as a home buyer, is getting a pre approved mortgage for your home. How to Get a Home Loan is absolutely essential to being prepared when that perfect Las Vegas home comes along!
We recommend getting a Pre Approved mortgage with Sheila Ledesma at GMC Financial.

8337 W Sunset Rd., Suite 300 | Las Vegas, NV 89113
Office: 702.777.1264 |Cell: 702.683.7777 |Fax: 702.952.0874
Sheila Ledesma will treat clients the same way we do here at Ratliff/Pittenger Group RE/MAX and have incredible loan programs for every situation. If you'd like to start the quick pre-approval process, simply fill out the form below. Sheila Ledesma with GMC Finance will contact you to complete your pre approved mortgage application.
Most Realtors/agents won't even show prospective Las Vegas home buyers available property without a pre approval letter. Without speaking to a lender about their financial and personal information, neither the prospective buyer nor the Realtor/agent knows how much the buyers can qualify for or what type of loan they will be getting and it's pointless to even start looking at properties.
Mortgage Approval Las Vegas letter is simply a letter from a lender stating that the Mortgage Loan Originator (MLO) has reviewed your financial and personal information (income, asset, liabilities, employment, residence, identity, etc…) and that based on the findings from an automated underwriting system (AUS), the borrower meets the loan programs minimum requirements based on the information that has been provided. It is just a conditional Bank Home Loan Approval that is contingent on a whole lot of other things happening and a boatload of even more documentation being provided.
Many prospective Las Vegas home buyers think that all they have to do is tell an MLO how much they make, where they work and how great their credit history is and voila, Get Pre Approved. While some MLO's may give you a Mortgage Approval Las Vegas their borrowers that way that is most certainly not how I do it.
Bank Home Loan Approval
Mortgage Approval Las Vegas lending environment has become extremely complicated and convoluted in so many ways and it is now more stringent than it has been in years. A brief conversation on the phone with a prospective home borrower about their finances and other personal information is not enough information in order to determine a borrower's qualifications or credit worthiness and actually, it never has been.
In an effort to make an accurate assessment of a house borrower's qualifications and credit worthiness, an MLO needs to review a borrower's, income and asset information (pay stubs & bank statements) as well as their liabilities (credit report). Furthermore, an MLO needs to verify a borrower's employment, residence, identity, social security identification, tax returns as well as their funds needed to close escrow.
Without reviewing all of this documentation, an MLO can not accurately determine if a borrower meets all of the lenders requirements as well as the guidelines for the Bank Home Loan program that the borrower is applying for.
