I'm 19 years old and just had a baby and am struggling because I can't move anywhere because of the eviction on my credit. I was only 17 and signed a lease. They never asked for verification of my age. What should I do to get this eviction off my credit

Why were you evicted? Because you lied when you signed the lease? Or because you didn't pay your rent on time?

Because I didn't pay rent on time.

Then your age had nothing to do with it. And non-payment of rent will stay on your record, for at least 7 years,

Scott -- would non-payment and "didnt pay rent on time" be different? -- Savage

Yeah, but constant late payments is grounds for eviction.
