I'm a permanent resident of the US with an oustanding balance on a old Canadian Credit Card. If for some reason I'm unable to continue to pay the card off, can they sue me in the American courts. I guess I'm asking two questions--Can my Canadian credit problems cause me problems in the States? My old debt was under my maiden name.
I don't know about the legality of it, but they can sure put it on your credit report. I know of a few rare cases where money was owed to a European Utility in Europe who manage to report on somebodies credit report.
