What exactly happens when you deposit money in the bank?

pixeloppy asked:


I’m curious to know exactly what happens when you deposit money into a bank, whether it’s cash or checks.

What exactly happens? Why does it take so long sometimes for the checks to deposit into your account, yet when you go to cash a check it’s instant?

How long does it take to establish credit?


My boyfriend has no credit and we’re trying to qualify for a mortgage. We really want to buy a house by like November so we can qualify for the first time buyer credit.

If he got a credit card like today, that would be about 4 months. Is this enough time to get a score?

Also, he can’t get approved because he has no credit, will a secured credit card give the same credit as a regular card?Submited by:Cyndi

What is the best credit card for an 18 trying to build credit?

I’m soon to be 18 and am looking to get a credit card to help build credit. My dad said the best thing to do is to just use it to buy gas, but I’m not really all that up to date on how credit cards work and which ones are the best. Does anyone have any wise credit card wisdom to pass on to me?

How do credit hours work and what’s the difference between part-time and full-time?

I don’t understand how credit hours work. Part-time I think is 12 credit hours a semester and full-time is 15 credit hours. If I went part time does that mean that I have to get 12 hours a week?

Can I still get the apartment even if my credit is not the same as others?

I am interested in renting/living in an apartment in Los Angeles, CA. This apartment is so beautiful and spacious. The rent is expensive because it cost about $1500/month to live there. I know that L.A. is expensive, but I always wanted to live there when I was a kid, since I am from Chicago. I also noticed that landlords look at your credit report to see your credit, and I am not sure which credit report they would look at. I don’t want to get rejected because I really want to live at that apartment. I am also afraid that my credit score would be bad from the other two credit reports since I already know that one of my credit scores on one of my credit reports is good. My question is should I keep my fingers crossed and hope that I do get approved for the apartment or should I just forget about it and pray that I get the apartment?
