I thought there was a $3000 earning limit on this package. My husband and I both worked in 2007 but I was injured due to an auto accident and didn't quite make $3000. Believe it or not I was only $45 off. I have two children but one turned 18 at the end of November. I ws still able to claim him on 2007 return. I'll check out the IRS website but if you have any other info please keep me informed.

Wow this is a very outdated post. If you look at the dates you will see it was from 07.

I checked my scores some couple of weeks ago, they ran down in the low to the mid 400s. I was struggling having a hard time getting approved for anything due to a layoff I had last year so I fell behind on my bills and now I am struggling trying to get my score back up so I can purchase a home. I surf the internet in search of help and I met with AUTOLINKS CREDIT SERVICES and I explained to them my credit situation and they promised to help me get my scores back on track so I can be qualified for the home purchase. After some couple of days later, they cleared the bills on my credit profile and effected the changes across all 3 credit bureaus and finally raised my scores to 793. I bought the house after a week and I am very happy today with my family. You can contact them and have them fix your credit issues as fast as possible.
