When using debt consolidation can I include my sister’s debt, since i’m paying her bills as well? She’s out of work, and she needs help as well as I do. Right now Im paying for all the bills.

No, you can’t unless you’re legally liable for them. What you are doing is just gifting money to her.

It depends on what you mean by debt consolidation. If you are getting a HELOC or other loan to consolidate your debt then it depends on if you qualify to borrow enough. If you are working with a debt consolidation company then you need to ask them what their policy is as well as what the law allows.

Hi,
I used “Credit Solution” to settle my debt and improve my credit score.They managed to reduce my debt up to 58% .It’s legitimate.I came across this company on NBC News Special Edition.Check it out here:
