4 grand - return to Aus tickets for my partner and I
2 grand - visa/legal fees
1 grand - month prepaid on rent
1 grand - living expenses in America (housed by mum)
*all prices AUD.

Which means I'll probably need a loan. I got work for the next few weeks that are lucrative but VERY unstable (I have $500 in work this week, none the next, but around $2200 the next, argh!) and some are VERY last minute (I've been called for two hundred dollar shows an hour away a HALF HOUR before I have to be there) meaning I -might- or -might not- be able to make the money.
Which in lies the problem:
My parter makes 1k a month average. He is able to get an Australian loan as he is, well, Australian. BUT, a 10k loan to a guy who makes 1k a month?! I make 4-5k a month but I am unable to get an Australian loan because I'm not a perm. resident. He has amazing credit. I have shitty credit.
To be put on the loan is there a way to put his status, his credit but my income on the loan? Also, I have no TECHNICAL proof of my income (c'mon tax season!) because I get cash-in-hand... I deposit it and have proof of deposits.. but nothing saying where in bloody hell it came from.
.....
How bad is this situation looking?
