    Hundredquestions reacted to chaine1 in Establishing Credit (Quickly?)   
    Hi all,
    I just wanted to report something that may be of interest/help to new immigrants trying to establish credit.
    My husband and I (the USC) arrived back in the USA in late July of this year (we both were living abroad in a third country). I am back in school as a PhD student, and my husband has thankfully found reasonable employment (not as good as hoped, but still very happy he found something very quickly).
    Pretty soon after arriving, we started trying to establish credit for my husband - we got him a secured credit card, and I added him as an authorized user on one of my credit cards.
    We are interested in buying a house, but assumed we were pretty much out of luck, with me earning pittance as a grad student, and my husband with no credit. However, we decided to meet with a loan officer just to get an idea of our options, and what we should do to insure we could be in a house within a few years.
    The loan officer decided to run credit score checks on both of us, and to everyone's surprise, my husband's score came back as a 690 (about average). In looking at the report, the loan officer said the only reason he scored as high as he did is because I added him as an authorized user on my account.
    I had no idea that doing so would influence his score so much. In fact, I was under the assumption that this would have a very small to no effect. But low and behold, after only being in the USA for 2 and a half months, he is scoring high enough to qualify for a home loan.
    I know this may not work for everyone, but I wanted to share our experience, in case it is able to help others out. We were both quite surprised by this development.
    Good luck to everyone!

    Hundredquestions reacted to Krikit in Issue with late-stage abortion...   
    I cannot imagine any circumstance where a six month pregnancy would be terminated. It would not be an abortion, it would be a live birth. You cannot even begin to imagine the bond between mother and child, so I would guess that, once she has given birth, the odds are against her abandoning her child.
    And, lastly, lying to obtain a visa to the United States is always a bad decision.

    Your fiance is lying to you. There is no way someone can submit an application in March and receive no1 that has August date on it.

    Hello there:
    I do not pretend to know you or your situation, but it seems like you got financially used and emotionally abused. I also know that it is easier said than done, but don't waste anything else on someone that clearly is not woth it. What goes around, comes around, karma can not be escaped.
    It might not be worth much, but be thankful that it happened now and not after all the trouble, the waiting, the frustration, the expence, etc. of going through the process.
    Sorry you are hurting, my heart goes out to you.
    PS. We men or Dominicans are not all the same. Men like him give the rest of us a bad rep. Hope you find someone that will cherish you for the person you are.

    Seriously, if this is a major struggle for you, you probably should rethink the whole marriage and immigration thing. It only gets harder from here.
    Sorry you're having a rough time. We're all along for a similar ride.

    Sorry that this happened to you.
    In life there are no guarantees.
    My Ex is a pathological liar, caniver, deceptioon artist, child/parent alienator and also an American. I say this to show that these things happen also with USC to USC marriages.
    One thing I will also add is that you did not loose a Daughter. She will turn 18 one day and you can then reignite your relationship without any distraction.
    You can make more money, buy more huses, properties, etc .
    I know this is a clique but do not get hung up on her or the system that enables people like her. Move on. Success is the best revenge.
    I feel for you Brother.
