My wife has no income or credit history. She received a credit card application in the mail. The application does not require me to put in any of my personal information but it does ask to state household income.
If she gets into trouble with her card, will it affect my credit or will the damage be limited to her credit score?

Its very difficult obtaining a good fair credit card with high amounts on them. I currently only have a 300 limit. Will a secure credit card help to increase the credit score? Any advice. I’m also not sure if I should pay off the credit cards that expire within the next couple of years from the credit report.

I have 2 credit cards and they’re not even that much. I’ve been paying every month to reduce the balance but after interest charges, it seems to go straight back up. I recently checked my credit score, and it’s in pretty OK shape. I know if I get another credit card, my credit limit will be enough to cover for both debts. My plan is to just get a new credit card with no interest for one year and pay them off then cancel my other 2 credit cards.
Is that a safe idea? Will it affect my credit score (negatively) that much to do so?
Thanks.

Ok, past credit messed me up. I have a judgement thats almost paid off. I am trying to raise my credit score.I have 3 new accounts that I’ve paid on time for over 1 year. I read that one way to raise your score is to " piggy back" on a relatives good credit ( have them add me to one of their good accounts and not use it) Is this safe, is it legal. I would love to hear constructive ways to increase my credit score. Please don’t judge me. Almost all of my " bad" credit accounts have been paid off. I put my sons first when the divorce came. They lived in the house that I paid for while I lived in a basement.

I have requested and received free credit reports from all the 3 credit agencies, but none of the reports include a credit score. Are they required to send you your score. I did see a link on one of the sites that asked for to get my credit score and not just the credit history.
