As far as credit checks when you first came here did you have any trouble? i would imagine it would be neutral but i have heard some say that bad credit is worth than no credit?

James.
Don't worry about any of that. Just go to apartment people and they'll find you an owner desperate enough to rent to you. The market here isn't all that hot. Many owners just want rent. Offer a larger deposit if you need. Get a friend to offer you a "job". Put down a decent income. Also a clean but new credit report is not a bad thing at all. You'll come out just fine.

A naturalized citizen can't be president either or even hold certain government jobs ( high security clearance). They can't vote or hold jobs that require you to be a citizen etc.

The president statement is a bit ridiculous considering you need to be born in the u.s to be eligible to become the president so even when i become a citizen it will make no difference. For the purposes of renting i think having a green card and a social will be fine but we shall see.

Honestly man **** go continue to be jobless troll you have given me **** before and then you said nothing once i posted my graph. I have more money in my backpack right now than you have in your back accounts. Obviously not all my money was on full tilt or poker stars which was where most of the money got seized anyway. I got 6 figures seized and im still perfectly fine so don't think your a smart ass posting a homeless thing. + If you keep up with this stuff the DOJ made a deal recently to get the players funds back so everything is fine.
