The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) provides a consumer with certain rights regarding his file in the credit bureau. The FCRA was enacted to promote the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of a credit bureau.
Credit bureaus may generally report accurate negative information on your credit report for up to seven years and bankruptcy information for up to ten years. Under the law, credit bureaus are also called "credit reporting agencies.". You may obtain a free copy of your credit report once every 12 months from each of the three major credit bureaus at www.annualcreditreport.com.
