Q. I am renting my house and this couple have american names, but they are not born Americans. I believe and smell something wrong. The ids can be fake too. Where to find this info? And about theei phone numbers address and mail address in sacramento. How to check if that address really exists? Thanks all!
A. If you really want to know what kind of background they have simply add a requirement to your application that as part of the application they are to go to the local credit bureau and order a credit report and attach it to your rental application if their ID is fake and they turn out to be illegals and or terrorists you'll never see them again.
Here is what the government is trying to do regarding ID issues:

What are the requirements in renting an apartment?
Q. I will be moving to Canada and settling alone renting an apartment. I just want to ask how renting works. I am a young adult. Sorry for some of my dumb questions. Do the owner of the apt accept cash or just cheque? Do I need to go to the bank and ask for evaluation for my salary earnings ? Do they do contracts like a year contract or can I leave whenever I want to as long as I pay the whole rent amount (if ever i would want to transfer) ?
A. You can't just move to Canada. For the sake of the rest of the question... I would assume you are a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or have a valid work or study permit. Otherwise, you'll find living in Canada rather difficult.
There are not hard rules for renting. It depends on what you are renting and from who. Most larger apartments are run by property management companies and will require provincial ID (i.e. your provincial driver's license or a provincial ID card). Most will also run a credit check on you -- which you'll likely fail if you don't have a credit history in Canada. Some may require references. If you try to pay cash... many property managers will have a problem with this. It just isn't safe carrying large amounts of money. No one will accept a check from a non-Canadian bank.
Room rentals, splitting an apartment with someone, rural/poorer neighbourhoods, etc. might not require the credit check or sometimes not even references but... they will typically require Canadian ID.
Vacation rentals, time shares, apartment/condo swaps, and/or house sitting ads might accept credit cards (depending upon who is managing the agreement).
You require proof of legal residency to obtain provincial ID, to open a bank account, to obtain a social insurance number (i.e. work), to attend school, etc.

A. do what ever you can to go to college. yes, you will have student loans, but its worth it. do you mean 1,200 per month? 12k is 12,000 and thats over 144,000 per year which is mid/upper class income. assuming its the first number, you do have some options. the most important thing is to fill out forms for FAFSA. go to their website, its fafsa.gov or something like that. you basically have to file some forms reporting your families income and other information, so make sure your parents do it. it is really important for need-based financial aid and scholarships. also, talk to your counselor. he or she will be able to walk you through this process. also, go online and start searching for scholarships. there are tons out there that you can apply for, most have certain requirements and require an essay, but its definitely something that a lot of hs students neglect. there are also federal student loans that you can get, which the majority of people have. my cousin had over 100,000 in loans when she graduated, but she'll tell you it was worth it. another option is community college. its very affordable and you still get a college degree. if you want the college experience, look at in state schools (for ex. if you live in michigan, michigan state, michigan, western, etc. are a state school). theyre a lot cheaper for in state students. my best advice is to do what ever you can to go to college..in today's economy, its even hard to get a job with a college degree, let alone one without it. good luck!
how much does it cost to hook up electricity?
Q. We have just rented a house in the county, It was built in 1932, It has been remodeled just a few months ago. The house is 1072 sq ft. It has a well water. This would be our first home.
They have electricity, but we just need to switch it to our names, Dose that cost anything?

A. USA If there is a meter base on the house, and there was electricity at one time, the local utility will re-energize the power, usually at no charge. If the power has beed shut off for a long time, more than a year, the utility will probably require you to have a fire underwriter (electrical inspector) inspect the existing meter and circuit breaker panel, to make sure they are in good shape and able to reeceive power. You will have to pay for that inspection; usually less than $100.00
If there was no electricity ever at the house, and if there is no meter or electric circuit breaker or fuse panel, you are looking at $1000 on up, depending on the power requirements of the house.
Start by calling your local electric utility.
