Without a doubt, even if you cannot go with the 15 year, the 30 year would be a huge improvement.

Thanks so much for the reply! I thought maybe 15 would be a stretch, but thought I'd bring it up. Interestingly enough she did receive something from (I don't know if I can mention names?) bank. Anyway, very large, legit bank so definitely not a scam. It says FHA Streamline Special. Its telling her she may eligible for an FHA streamline. It says also it may or may not require an appraisal. In most cases they can pay closing costs. It just asked for 2 things:
1) Drivers license number and expiration for all persons on the loan
2) Current employment name, position held, address and phone number along with a current pay stub for all persons on the loan.
I'm hoping by "all persons" maybe they mean just who would qualify to be on the loan and not everyone who is currently on the loan, because at all costs I'd like to leave my name off.
Furthermore, it says "
Preferred Customer Status" in bold and it was just addressed only to her. She is the primary borrower on the mortgage currently, but I'm on the mortgage too. Maybe I'm looking into this too much, but maybe they are thinking what I'm thinking and would try it with just her?
I did talk to this bank last week and they said FHA streamline rates with them are @ 3.75% for 30 years.
