Credit Score Fico Free

Question: where can i get my FICO Score # free without signing up for any other offers?
i don't want my credit reports just my fico/beacon score.
Answer: You have to pay for the score. Next time you try to make a purchase you can ask for your score.
Also If you go to annualcreditreport.com you can buy your score. I think it's 7 dollars.
Or just try a free 30 day program and cancel same day.

Question: Can you get a store credit card with this score?
I want to get a credit card from a store like best buy, compusa or sears but i want to know if my credit is good enough.
I just got a free Credit Score from Credit Karma and my score is 658
Is that good enough? and what store is it easier to get a card from?
Answer: Credit Karma is not going to give you your true FICO Score. For all you know that 658 they are quoting (based on what you provided as info, not what the credit reporting agencies have) in true FICO terms could be 600 or under.
If you are under 21, you are going to have a harder time getting credit. You have to prove income or have a cosigner now.

Question: If emigrating to Canada, would my credit history be given merit by financial institutions?
When opening bank accounts, applying for credit cards, etc., will my credit history be taken into consideration prior to entry into Canada?
Note: I'm not talking about the emigration process, I'm referring to Credit Scoring issues only, and whether or not foreign nationals are given merit for previous history when making new financial arrangements or agreements in Canada.
Answer: I think the credit systems is very similar to the US and they use some of the same CBRs as well.... So yes, you will get credit for your history..kr
Good Luck!
