You can check your credit report from each of the three major credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion) for free once per year through AnnualCreditReport.com. This is the only website authorized by the federal government to provide free credit reports.
To check your credit report, follow these steps:
-
Go to AnnualCreditReport.com.
-
Select your state and click "Request Report."
-
Enter your personal information, including your name, address, date of birth, and Social Security number.
-
Choose which credit reporting agency you want to receive your report from.
-
Answer security questions to verify your identity.
-
Review your credit report for errors or inaccuracies.
If you find any errors or inaccuracies on your credit report, you should dispute them with the credit reporting agency. This can be done online, by mail, or by phone. The credit reporting agency is required to investigate your dispute and respond within 30 days.
It's a good idea to check your credit report regularly to monitor your credit and make sure there are no errors or fraudulent activity. You can also sign up for credit monitoring services, which will alert you to any changes in your credit report, such as new accounts or inquiries.
