I have the worst credit in the world. I can't get a decent car loan, can't buy a new computer, can't even open a checking account. I have had nothing in my name,(no credit of any kind) in about 9 years. I've never had a bankrupcy. Why have these old items not fallen off my credit report? I thought after 7 years things were supposed to stop being reported. What can I do to stop the credit reporting agencies from causing me to be turned down for something as simple as a bank account? It is difficult to not be able to put your money in the bank!

Is anyone tired of paying the Ebay fees to sell?

I am wondering if there was a alternative that was as popular as ebay and free like craigslist. But also had the ammount of products that ebay has on its site

There was also a easier way to buy rather than waiting for the auction to end but getting it at the same low price.

And for the sellers no more paying sellers fees and then not having your item sell.

would you make the switch?

The US employer asked my father to fill a W-9 form in
order to pay him for services provided to them in South America where my father resides permanently. I've told my father that a W-9 is for
US residents, not for foreigners. And that he should
provide them with a W-8 form instead. Am I correct?
Or is there another form he should provide to avoid unnecessary US income tax witholding ?

im in need of some good andvice and referral.

i want to work from home, and earn a set weekly/monthly income.
im aware that the websites offering thousands to millions in a day are normally scams, so i want to know if there's any one out there who is currently working or has worked from home in the uk.

and i would be greatful for information on which websites/companys you use, the nature of the work, and how much it pays.
i want more to do than survey filling or reviewing.

If you know a company or someone who is recruiting employees; i have experience in sales and marketting in a reputable recording company, done various IT courses, experience in administration, and am a university graduate with a masters in phillosophy. and am willing to learn any skills needed to earn money from home.

If you are earning money by any means from home, i would be very greattful, if you could share your knowledge and source with me aswell.

thank you in advance

I used to have a small business in my home for about six years. Then I completely closed it. During this period I filed my tax returns as a single unmarried "self employed" person.

Since then I have lived on savings & had no income from business nor have I worked for anybody for a salary for couple of years.

When I file my tax returns for last two years, am I considered self employed & do I have to file as "self employed" ?

If yes then now onwards if I don’t want myself to be considered as self employed & not want to file as "self employed" what do I need to do ? I am single & unmarried.
