  What happens when you can't pay your bills  
  When you take out a loan you sign a document promising to pay it back. But sometimes life doesn't go according to plan, and you're not able to make your payments.

When you fall behind on a loan, it becomes delinquent. The next step is default, but when it happens may depend on the lender, loan type and agreement.

What happens when you default
Defaulting on a loan has consequences – especially on your credit score. Lenders report late payments to the credit bureaus.

Late payments will hurt your credit score, and even if you bring the account up to date, missed payments can stay on your report for up to seven years. A low credit score may hurt your ability to get a loan in the future, or make it more costly.

Don't ignore the problem
That's not going to make it go away. Take a hard look at your budget to identify any spending you may be able to cut to shore up funds. If you can't make a payment, reach out to the lender, and share your situation.

  Financial planner tip of the day  
  "If your income is not keeping you from qualifying for a loan, but you lack a credit history, a guarantor added to the loan agreement might be an option to consider. A guarantor is legally responsible for the repayment of the loan if the borrower defaults, but has no legal claim to any property the funds were used to purchase."
