# refinancing.vin > The loan, re-read: an auto refi from a photograph of the contract — the payoff, today's posted value, and the refund a state rule returns. The re-read of the loan already on the record: an auto refi that starts from a photograph of the contract — the payoff, today's posted value, a lower payment where the arithmetic supports one, and the F&I refund a state rule returns on unused coverage. No score impact until the soft pull is approved; two signatures stay yours.
