Can you sue your absent husband for not paying a credit card he borrowed money on, the credit card is in my name only?


My husband cosigned for my 2nd mortgage and he is not on the first mortgage. if we have the same lender for both mortgages and we quit paying on the first mortgage how fast will his credit be impacted?

Since he is not listed as a borrower on the first mortgage his credit is not affected by paying or not paying that mortgage. Even if both loans are with the same company, he is only held responsible for the loan in which he signed.


Can a creditor levy your bank account in Texas and how do they find your bank account?

Yes your bank account can be levied for a credit card debt in texas. They CANNOT garnish your wages but they can levy your bank account if they sue you and get a default judgement. I found this out the hard way. My husband had stopped paying on a credit card in 2006 and we received a notice 12/2009 that they were suing him but was not aware of what they could really do besides put it on his credit. They froze every account with his name and social attached to it.


Can paying off credit cards increase your credit score?

Yes off course. Paying off any debts will increase your credit score.


How can paying down your credit cards lower your credit score?

Paying down your credit cards won't lower your scores-- but paying off and closing the credit cards will lower the scores. You want to show that your cards are not maxed out and you have plenty of room between the credit limit and the balance .
