A loan in forbearance permits a student to temporarily postpone their federal student loan payments. Or, the forbearance temporarily reduces the amount the student pays. Your students loans may show up on your credit report while in repayment status or out of deferment.
Do forbearance payment affect credit score? Also, if your lenders agree to a short sale and you have not been deliquent on your payments but the lender granted you a forbearance, will your credit score be affected?
It can take a couple weeks or longer. You should contact the person who issued the forbearance if you are concerned about this. Sometimes things don't get entered on your credit report and it is your responsibility to make sure it does.
Your credit can raise or lower your credit score. It is what consumer credit for buying a house or car is based on.
No, your low credit score should not affect your husband's credit score, unless the lender/bank uses both your information for the loan. Credit score is based on each individual's information.
