I am kind of new to this, so please bear with me. I am going to get added as an AU to a few of my mom's cards to hopefully boost my scores. Chase will be one of the CL's, and they are sending paperwork for her (or maybe both of us) to fill out. Is there any potential harm in giving my SS?
I am going to be in the market for a mortgage very soon and need to bring my scores up.
By the way, mom and I have different addresses and different last names. I have absolutely no active revolving or installment CL's of my own and it's killing my scores. Have some baddies, but most of them are old and my total debt is around $1,600.
ANY advice you guys can offer regarding this technique would be greatly appreciated. If the scores don't come up fast, I'm out of the housing market for awhile.
Current Scores:
TU 558 FAKO
EX 551 FAKO
EQ 584 FAKO
