So my wife added me to some of her good accounts, so that hopefully I can gain some good credit history from it.  I don't have much credit history as it stands, so anything will help.  She has a few credit cards, and merchant cards that she has had for a while with good payment histories.

So will give it a few weeks and check my credit scores again and see if they have improved.  Probably also need to raise some of her credit limits if possible.  Only problem with that is that we will get a credit inquiry on our credit, so don't want to apply for too much.

I will post again, about our easy it was, the affects and if you should do it.  Got a lot of the info on how to do this from this credit score model.  It is awesome at breaking down the whole process and letting you know what affects your credit score the most.
