Divorce and Credit Reports

Divorce is a financial shock to many families, with divorced women particularly hard hit by the separation.

Divorced women are three times more likely than married women to file for bankruptcy, and four times more likely to earn less than the poverty line.

Over one fifth of women in the US have been divorced at least once.  As we shoulder the economic crisis and head back to work, applicants that have been through a divorce have the right to be considered equally with all others.
