New to USA.... No Credit history :( Help!!!

[Anonymous]

Hi! I have recently got married and moved to the US(a month back) and hence have no credit history. I need your help with getting on with building a credit history....i Have applied for Capital One credit card so far. My husband has been a regular defaulter and pays up in full but mostly after due date. I need help to repais his credit line and build mine as I want to buy a car and eventually a house....sigh ....

await your replies

I'll assume you already have a social security number...if you don't then you need to apply for one.

Secondly you may need to get a secured card inorder to have any sort of credit history you can get more info on the link below
