Credit on file

88% high

After 90 days of signing, permit-denial refunds are closed; offer credit

Used sales date because signed date is missing. Signing was 1967 days before the cancel request (from sales date). The 90-day window is only the time to obtain a government-signed permit denial — not a general cancellation timeout. Offer credit on file (same or higher future building, 2 years).

From order-form rules + opened permit file. Independent of Jacob's sent mail.

MISMATCH

Decision matches (credit), but Jacob’s sent reason/template used “90 day cancellation policy” as a blanket timeout. 90 days is only the permit-denial window. Policy proposal template is the outside-policy credit letter.

Permit doc review

TEST MODE. Open the actual uploaded file. A filename is not a denial. Saving writes data/store.json only — never email, never live cancel-app. Bulk file-open reviews from data/permit-doc-reviews.json hydrate here when that file exists; they never set government-signed from a filename.

Subject: Cancellation request — credit on file

Hello Lori VanHoose,

We have completed reviewing your cancellation request. This request falls outside our cancellation policy: the 72-hour cancel-for-any-reason window has passed, and we do not have a government-signed unfixable permit denial within 90 days of signing.

If you wish to proceed with the cancellation, the deposit will convert to a credit on file toward a future building of the same or higher value. The credit is stored under your contact information and is historically valid for two years.

Please tell us how you would like to proceed.
