Credit report guide

Account Incorrectly Reported Late

Prepare evidence for a late-payment reporting review.

Step 1

Review the month reported late, payment due date, payment posting date, and any hardship or correction records.

Step 2

Check whether all bureaus report the same late month or whether only one bureau differs.

Step 3

Use precise dates and supporting records; avoid broad claims that are not tied to the account history.
