Question

[lady_karelia]

I know there are a lot of clever people on my f-list, and a lot of you are here in the US. My question is: Can something be done when someone refuses to rent out an apartment on the basis that one family member does not have a social security number? I'm raging right now, as this kind of stance puts me on the same level as illegal immigrants. Now, we're neither here illegally nor are we immigrants. And seriously, do they expect the holder of a professional work visa with a gazillion qualification to sleep in the park under the tree???

I'd call HUD honestly.
I believe they're supposed to have alternate tracking numbers for you, but I don't know.
My ex husband is here illegally and he rents legally so I know you can do it.

Teehee, just telling them we contacted HUD did it. :) Thanks for that!
