Welcome to your forum. I'm sorry for your loss. For identity theft, I would suggest filing a police report asap and submitting it to the 3 CRA along with any collection agency or creditor where your identity information was used without your permission. That should help with those. For bills, could you list all your bills, including credit cards, loans (including interest) as well as how much you make? You might have to look around but you can rent some apt without good credit but would require a security deposit. You might even be able to get into a mobile home without good credit.

If you dont live in a community property state and you did not sign to be obligated for the bills you are not responsible for payment of them his estate is (if there is any).

 

As far as the ID Theft entries are concerned you can use the laws in the FCRA to get those removed from your reports and I advise a freeze on all of them. Welcome to myFico Smiley Happy

Regardless of community property state, the uphill battle is going to be proving that they were opened fraudulently (or in other words, without your consent). Complicating factors could include: were the bills for them paid from from your bank account or a joint account?

 

As with anything that's as complicated as this and with such dramatic effects, I'd suggest seeking the advice of an attorney.
