Most apartment owners will go to a credit reporting agency to obtain a written report of your credit standing. (This may or may not include long distance phone calls to previous landlords or employers. Fur­ thermore, you may be asked to pay $15 to $60 for the credit check. Be prepared for this additional expense; it can add up if you're considering two or three different apartments. If you are a prospective tenant, there are a few things to keep in mind when filling out the lease application. First of all, don't lie or inflate your salary - that information will. be verified in the credit check. It is also helpful to know the numbers of all your bank accounts and the addresses of your previous employers and landlords. You may be asked to give personal references as well. Landlords should be aware that the Fair Credit Reporting act requires them to hold any information they receive about a person's credit standing in strict confidence. This information should be used only for the business transaction involving a prospective tenant. The act provides rights of actions by consumers against those who abuse the privileges of the act. Anyone who obtains in­ formation from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses, may be fined up to $5,000"or imprisoned for not more than one year or both. " To avoid obstacles in obtaining & mortgage, prospective homebuyers should check their credit files before contacting a lending instutition. (Under the Fair Credit Reporting act, you are entitled to view the contents of your file at your local credit bureau). You can request that any errors or outdated information be corrected or deleted before you at­ tempt to get financing. If an item is deleted or a statement added, you can request the bureau notify anyone who requested a credit report on you within the last six months. And should re-investigation not result in a revised file, you can request that a brief statement ex­ plaining your position be included in all future reports. Even if you haven't borrowed in several years and aren't planning to seek financing or to rent in the near future, checking your credit file is a good idea anyway. Adverse in­ formation may remain on file up to seven years. Information seven or more years old should be deleted from your file. You should notify your credit bureau that the act requires removal of such dated information. However, bankruptcy information may remain on file for 10 years. •SILVER' AWARD Ray A.

Federal motor vehicle s a fe ty s t andards require that child safety seats made after Jan. 1, 1981, show good per­ formance in a simulated crash test. Some models have been taken off the market as a result. According to the National Safety Council, you should be par­ ticularly careful about car seats that have been handed down. Consider these points before using any child safety seat: 1 - The "best" child safety seat is one that you are willing to use every time you travel. Try the seat in your car and with your children before you buy it. 2 - A car seat with a top anchor strap must be fastened to a special anchor plate or rear lap belt, and it must be pulled tight. If you cannot or are unwilling to do this, buy a car seat that is anchored only by a lap belt. 3 - The same care seat , may sell at a wide range ' of prices in area stores. Shop carefully and ask about rental -or wholesale programs being run by, service groups or health organizations. Follow manufac tu re r ' s in ­ structions carefully. *lsHri 4611 W.
