What information is included in my credit report?
  • Personal information: Compiled from credit applications you completed in the past, this information normally includes your name, current and recent addresses, Social Security Number, date of birth and current and previous employers.
  • Credit history: The bulk of your credit report consists of details about credit accounts that were opened in your name or that list you as an authorized user (such as a spouse's credit card).  Account details are supplied by creditors with which you have an account include:
    • The date the account was opened, the credit limit or amount of the loan, the payment terms, the balance, and a history that shows whether or not you've paid the account on time.
    • Depending on the manner in which they were paid, closed or inactive accounts stay on your report for 7 to 11 years from the date of their last activity.
  • Inquiries: Credit reporting agencies record an inquiry whenever your credit report is shown to another party, such as a lender, service provider, landlord, or insurer. Inquiries remain on your credit report for up to two years.
  • Public records: Matters of public record obtained from goverment sources such as courts of law - including liens, bankruptcies, and overdue child support - may appear on your credit report. Most public record information stays on your credit report for 7 years.
