Hmm... You can start checking the identity theft thing immediately, and I've always felt it's a good thing to do, especially after a scare I had a few years ago. I don't know about the new "credit check" things they're talking about on TV, but the big 3, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion all give out one free per year.

I always figure it's a good thing to know.
