I have a very poor credit history. My boyfriend has an impeccable credit history. He has a mortgage at present but wants me to go on the mortgage so that we can get a bigger house is there anyway we can declare my earnings without putting my name on the mortgage? or is there any other way that I can be considered when we look at mortgages?

Thanks

To take your income into account you'll need to be on the mortgage.

Yes it does, it also means you would be financially linked which means your bad credit record could affect his own record in the future.
