Isigaba sesi-2: Okuhlukile okungu-5 okuwumngcingo lapho ilungu lomndeni elisaphila INGABE lithweswe icala¶

Ngaphambi kokuthi wenqabe imfuno yomqoqi, cwaninga lezi zimo ezinhlanu ezisemthethweni ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi kukhona okuhlukile okusebenzayo kuwe:

1. Umnikazi We-akhawunti Ehlangene Yangempela / I-Co-Signer vs. "Umsebenzisi Ogunyaziwe"¶

Uma ibhange lingakwazi ukukhiqiza isivumelwano somboleki esisayinwe nguwe, ubumane ungumsebenzisi ogunyaziwe futhi ukweleta u-$0.

2. Izakhiwo Zomphakathi (Kwabashadile Abasaphila Kuphela)¶

Izifundazwe zase-U.S. eziyisishiyagalolunye zisebenza ngaphansi kokuthi Umthetho Wezakhiwo Zomphakathi: Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin (kanye ne-Alaska uma abalingani bekhetha ukungena). - Izikweletu ezitholwa yinoma yimuphi umngane womshado ngesikhathi somshado ukuze kuzuze umphakathi oshadile ngokuvamile kucatshangwa ukuthi izikweleti zomphakathi, okusho ukuthi impahla yomphakathi ephethwe umbhangqwana ingafinyelelwa ukuze kwanelise lezo zikweletu. - Imikhawulo evikela abashadile abasaphila Empahleni Yomphakathi ithi:Impahla Ehlukene yomlingani womshado (impahla okungeyakho ngaphambi komshado, amafa/izipho ezitholwe uwena wedwa, kanye imali yomshwalense wempilo ekhokhelwa wena njengomzuzi) ngokuvamile *ivikelwe kumuntu oshade naye oshonile ngaphandle kwalapho isivumelwano somuntu siqu silawula ngokuhlukilsiyasebenza (njenge-California Family Code Isigaba14, esingaphansi kwesimiso esiqinile sonyaka ongu-1 semikhawulo ngaphansi I-Calornia Code of Civil Procedure Isigaba 366.2 ngemva kokufa).

Imibuzo evame ukubuzwa¶

Kwenzekani uma "Ngingumsebenzisi Ogunyaziwe" ekhadini lesikweletu lomlingani wami oshonile futhi ibhange libika ibhalansi yobuhlongandlebe embikweni WAMI wesikweletu?¶

Uma ubunguMsebenzisi Ogunyaziwe kuphela (hhayi umfakisicelo ohlanganyelwe), awunasibopho sezomthetho sebhalansi. Okokuqala, shayela noma ubhalele uMnyango We-akhawunti Yokushonelwa / Oshonile womnikezi wekhadi lesikweletu ukuze ubike ukushona komnikazi wekhadi oyinhloko futhi ufune ukuthi igama lakho linqanyulwe ngokushesha njengoMsebenzisi Ogunyaziwe. Okwesibili, ngaphansi kwe-Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. Isigaba 1681i), fayela ingxabano esemthethweni ku-inthanethi noma ebhaliwe ne-Equifax, Experian, neTransUnion ethi: "Bengingumsebenzisi ogunyaziwe kuphela kule akhawunti; umnikazi wekhadi oyinhloko ushonile futhi anginasibopho senkontileka. Susa lolu hlu lokuhweba embikweni wami wesikweletu ngokushesha." Ama-credit bureaus asusa njalo imigqa yokuhweba yabasebenzisi Abagunyaziwe phakathi kwezinsuku eziyi-14 kuya kwezingu-30 zengxabano.

Ngingakwazi ukuqhubeka nokushayela imoto yomlingani wami oshonile noma yomzali, noma ngimise ibhange ekuyithatheni futhi?¶

Uma imoto inemali mboleko yemoto esebenzayo, umbolekisi wezimoto uphethe isixhumanisi esivikelekile esihlokweni semoto. Uma kungekho muntu owenza izinkokhelo zenyanga zemoto, umbolekisi unelungelo lokuphinda athathe imoto ngokwayo, nakuba engakwazi ukumangalela amalungu omndeni asaphila mathupha nganoma iyiphi ibhalansi yokuntuleka esele ngemva kokubuyiselwa (lokho kuntuleka kuyisimangalo esingavikelekile ngokumelene nefa le-probate kuphela). Uma imoto ibiza kancane kunebhalansi yemali ebolekiwe, ungashayela umbolekisi wezimoto, umtshele ukuthi umboleki ushonile, futhi uhlele ukuzinikela ngokuzithandela kokhiye ukuze ungakweleti lutho ephaketheni. Uma ufuna ukugcina imoto, qhubeka wenze izinkokhelo zanyanga zonke ngesikhathi futhi usebenzise i-DMV yesifunda sakho I-Afidavithi Yokudlulisa Ngaphandle Kwesiqinisekiso ukudlulisa isihloko.

Ingabe i-IRS noma i-State Tax Agency ingenza umlingani ophilayo noma ingane endala ikhokhe intela yentela yomuntu oshonile?¶

An ingane endala noma esinye isihlobo akanaso isibopho somuntu siqu nge-IRS engakhokhiwe yomzali oshonile noma izintela zentela yezwe (ngaphandle uma ingane isebenza Njengomabi Wefa futhi yabela izindlalifa ukheshi ngaphambi kokukhokha i-IRS ngokwephula 31 U.S.C. Isigaba 3713). Okwe-a umngane womshado osaphila, unesibopho somuntu siqu kuphela esikweletini sentela yomlingani oshonile uma usayine i-a Ukubuyiselwa Kwentela Okuhlangene (Ukufaka Abashadile Ngokuhlanganyela) kulowo nyaka wentela othize. Ngisho noma usayine imbuyiselo ehlanganyelwe, uma isikweletu sentela sivela emalini engenayo engabikwanga yomlingani wakho ongasekho noma amaphutha obungazi ngawo, ungafayela I-IRS Form 8857 (Isicelo Sosizo Lomlingani Omsulwa) ngaphansi kuka-26 U.S.C. Isigaba 6015 sokuba ne-IRS ikukhulule esikweletini sakho.

Liyini "Ifasitela Lebha Yesikweletu Sesikhathi Esifushane," futhi lizisula kanjani unomphela izikweletu zomuntu oshonile?¶

Yonke Ikhodi ye-Probate yesifunda iqukethe a Isimiso Sokungafunwa.

Noma yimuphi umbolekisi owehluleka ukufaka isicelo sesimangalo esibhaliwe esisemthethweni ngaphambi kokuthi umnqamulajuqu wezinyanga ezi-3 kuya kweziyisi-6 uphelelwe yisikhathi kuze kube phakade kuvinjelwe umthetho ekuqoqeni isenti elilodwa. Ngisho noma kungekho muntu ovula i-probate nhlobo, izifunda eziningi zinengaphandle eliphelele Unyaka ongu-1 noma iminyaka emi-2 yeSimo Semikhawulo Sangemva Kokufa (njenge-California Code of Civil Procedure Section 366.2 noma Florida Statutes Section 733.710) ngemva kwalokho cishe zonke izimangalo ezingavikelekile ezibhekiswe kumuntu oshonile zicinywa unomphela.
