A Credit Score / Immigration Question?

My wife is coming to the USA from Canada in the next 5-6 Months and I was wondering if when she gets here and gets herself a new SS Number, will her Credit Score that exists in Canada become linked to the new SS number or will she be in essence a "Blank Slate". I just was wondering how it would work for American Credit Bureaus if anyone might know.

  1. nope. She will start clean in which she have to start a credit history.
  2. I believe that she would have to show her credit rating report from Canada before she will be considered for credit in the States.
  3. she would start with a new credit score she would eventually have to built her life and credit again.
  4. No. There is no way to transfer credit ratings. You can, however, request that lenders pull a Canadian report (if they are able).
