This past week has been super super busy at the office. The show cause hearing was this past week. The show cause hearing is the last chance for people who haven't paid their 2014 taxes to avoid foreclosure in the long run and set up a payment plan. To set up a payment plan and avoid foreclosure, the candidate must take a MSU money management program. Many people try to debate this, but it is mandatory to even have your payment plan considered by the treasurer. There is a whole process of getting people into this payment plan and around 200 people were helped this week alone. This is how the treasurer saves so many people from losing their homes. Only 300 of the 10,000 homes that were on the track for foreclosure were actually taken last year, which is a great statistic.
Over break, I worked extra hours to get extra money for the holidays. Jonathan and I did lots of return mail along with receipts. A lot of people are attempting to get payment plans due to the fact that it is the new year and they only have until March 31st until their house is foreclosed on. Additionally, I took down the Christmas tree and sorted through a bunch of end of the year paperwork. We had a Christmas lunch which was a good way to take a break during the day. The new boss started at the beginning of the year, so every envelope must go out with labels of Mr. Roccas name on it. Since I am the intern, I have to put one of every envelope so everyone in the office has envelopes ready for them to use. The office is going through a lot of changes and there is a lot of stuff going on right now.
