Does your employment effect your credit score?

if there is no employment on my credit report will it hurt my score



Does your employment effect your credit score?

Things that affect your credit score positively:



Paying your bills on time and in full.



Using 25 percent or less of your available credit. Ideally, you should carry a balance of no more than $2,500 if your credit limit is $10,000.



Steady employment. People who are steadily employed are viewed as being better able to pay their bills on time



Things that affect your credit score negatively:



Late or missed payments



Using more than 80 percent of your total amount of available credit



Bankruptcy



Liens or foreclosures



Periods of unemployment



Too many requests for new lines of credit



Main Factors That Affect Your Credit Score



Your payment history. The most important factor to a potential lender is whether or not you will pay your bills in full and on time. The more recent your good (or bad) payment history, the more important it will be for your credit score.



Your outstanding debt. The more credit cards you have that are maxed out, the lower your score will be. As mentioned above, try to keep your credit card balances at 25 percent or less of your limits.



The length of time you%26#039;ve been building credit. The longer your credit history, the higher your credit rating.



The number of inquiries on your credit report. The more times you%26#039;ve applied for credit cards or loans, the more credit report inquiries will show up on your credit report. A higher number of credit report inquiries may indicate that you%26#039;re struggling financially or may have a lot of debt (even if you never used the cards or gotten the loans).



Does your employment effect your credit score?

I don%26#039;t think it effects it. Not paying your bills on time is what effects it.



Does your employment effect your credit score?

no job = no money = no way to pay off credit = bad credit



:(



Does your employment effect your credit score?

your credit score is a balance of income to debt ratio. so yes, it should show some type of employment either by you or a spouse if co-applicant.



Does your employment effect your credit score?

Employment is not a factor in credit scores, at least not if you mean your fico score, or other numeric credit scores supplied by the credit bureaus. These scores are calculated primarily by whether you make payments on time, the amount of revolving debt you carry, the ratio of revolving balances to limits (higher is worse), public records against you, and recent debt build up. The employment, however, may be considered subjectively by a loan underwriter, or may be a part of a bank or credit union%26#039;s in house scoring model, but not a part of your score at the credit bureau.



Does your employment effect your credit score?

As a loan officer for major bank:



No.



BUT - It DOES impact how the underwriter views an application. Employment history is something a bank asks to determine if there is steady income. People with steady income are a lower risk than people with unsteady income.
