Okay, so all these money and credit report posts got me thinking about my own and how it’s been a while since I checked my free yearly report. I’ve tried twice now to check it and it comes up not being able to verify who I am. I never had this problem until I changed my name… anyone else deal with this issue? Any advice would be helpful.
I know my cedit sucks big time. I have a garnishment against me for medical bills and numerous (like 7, none more than $400) accounts in collections. I can’t take care of the others until this garnishment is paid for and I still owe $3500 on it, so yeah, it may be a while. However, hopefully a big tax return will take care of the whole thing and then no more worries! I can go back to working full time and really getting my credit back on track. 🙂
Also, I work part time because with the garnishment I take home the same amount of money whether I work 40 hrs or 25 hrs a week. If I work full time I have to pay full time daycare and by the end of the month I owe more money than I make. So, I work part time now, garnishment still gets a decent check and I can pay rent.
