Then I'll work the Instalment part of it. And then remove the AU's in a few months. For installment I'm thinking about putting the livestock trailer only owe 4K we have for her and refinancing it into her name. Or her truck.
How about a 2nd Navy card in 91 day and 3 statements?
Navy also does offer a 5 year Shares Secured Loan. Minimum $3,001 required with ~2% APR. They allow to pay in advance and push out the due date. Thus, recouping the majority of the funds back immediately.

SSL no HP.
Unsecured, you're looking at a HP. Plus not sure how loose or tight they will be with loans in this current climate and how long the loan term will be for that amount.

Is funding the SSL an issue?

Not really an issue since you'll get 92 percent of it back when you pay it. But in the times were in I'm trying to hoard all my cash as much as possible. I have 90 day reserve but again I'm also off work for who knows how long.
Understood. Yes, you get back whatever you pay. It is really a simple process. The SSL will be there when you and your DD are ready to apply.
