Why does your car insurance rate go up if your credit score goes down?

Judging from your question I presume you are Canadian, and although this situation might occur in other Countries, I will answer it as a Canadian.
In Canada, automobile insurance companies can use anyreason, or no reason at all, to increase your insurance premiums; there are no regulations regarding the stories these businesses can fabricate to justify the increase, even though the "justification" sometimes contradicts their own published literature. In Canada, automobile insurers are given carte blanche to rob anyone they choose - and each insurer seems to choose a different victim.
You, of course, can, and should, shop your insurance with the greatest of diligence.

Your credit score is 635 you would like to improve your fico score to purchase a home Will opening three lines of new credit establish good credit in a year?
Opening three lines of credit will drop your score because it increases your perceived risk. It is impossible for risk managers to immediately assess how you will perform with the new credit availability so your risk goes up and your credit score goes down. It takes a long time to build a good score. I suggest you make sure you're keeping all of your REPORTED bills paid on time. Pay down balances as far as you can to keep your debt to income ratio in the low risk category and your score will start to improve. The algorythm that FICO uses to calculate your credit score is extremely complex. Take good care of the credit you have now and remember your debt to income ratio. That is HUGE.

Why score goes down after paying a charge off?
I know it sounds a little goofy but, your credit score is based on your credit history. Once you pay something off your credit history is completed for that particular account so your score drops a little. Having said that, I certainly don't recommend that you keep a lot of bills open just to keep your credit score high. A credit card where you maintain a small balance with most of the credit line available and paying your utilility, phone and rent or house payment on time or a little early will keep your credit score pretty healthy.
What information does not goes into your credit score?
Your credit score reflects how well you repay debt. So all accounts which are not extensions of credit are not reported to your credit report. Also, personal information such as: - Race - Gender - Income - Address
