We have found that we achieve a reduction of 44% which we believe should be worth 11 points, yet the template only identifies 6 points achieved while 44% reduction is shown. The percentage reduction derives directly from the WEp1 template that also shows 44%. Any idea why the template would be (incorrectly) showing only 6 points? Is there a glitch in the templates? Has anyone else had this problem?

We had a similar issue ; we entered in data into all the required fields; the prerequisite template said we were a "N", however the WEc1 credit said we acieved all 11 points, with one point reserved for innovation(!) ....How is that possible? ......We clicked the 'Feedback' tool, and left a message; what happened is that sometimes the credit submittal templates don't work correctly. They basically reset the forms; then the Prereq said "Y". ........ I would do the same if I were you. Good luck!

Kathy, we are having the same problem! Did you ever figure out how to get your points to change from 6 to 11? Our calculations are showing that we have well over a 40% reduction, but yet the credit is only showing that we earned 6 points! What do we do?

Lynne,Assuming you're using the most up-to-dat version of the form, you need to make sure that under Credit Information you have selected the number of points you're attempting. If that doesn't help I would give GBCI a call and they will look at it while on the phone with you.
