Can a person without a social security number start a credit history ?
Can a person without a SSN (but with a legal Tax identification number) develop a credit history ? This is for my friend who is on a dependent visa in the US but doesn’t have a job yet (hence no SSN). What does it take to start building credit history so that it would help in the future since people with longer credit histories are preferred… Firstly Is it possible to begin credit history and if yes what are the best ways.. Thanks in advance.
