I want to update my employment information with Credit Bureau. How do I do that?

Question

I am new to US. have been here for 2 months. so, I don not have any credit cards. When I see my credit report, I cannot see my employment records. I came to know that only credit card companies update the employment records with Credit Bureau. The other option is for the individuals to update it directly with Credit Bureau. I am not sure how to do this.

Answer 1

When you get a FREE copy of your credit report there should be a sheet that comes with it with for corrections, or you can make a copy and cross out the old address and write in the new one and send it to them. I received a sheet to contest any wrong info that was on the report I filled it out completely with all the old info crossed out and then adding new info.
I also added a 100 word statement. and I had them verify any info that I didn't think was correct, if they can't verify that they have to remove it and they have to remove anything you contest for 90 days........

Answer 2

On your credit report there should be a phone number to contact the credit bureau. Call them and see if they can help u update your info. Sometimes they also send u a page that u can send back to them. This page is for mistakes in your report or if any info is wrong. U could fill that out and send it back. Try these websites that I list. They may help u too. They are all 3 of our credit bureaus.

Answer 3

Information listed on your credit reports come from credit bureau members and public records. If you want your employment listed, apply for credit. If the creditor is a due paying member of credit bureaus, your employment will be listed.
If your credit bureau files contain incorrect information, you can dispute it with the credit bureaus.

Answer 4

Employment records have no affect on your credit score. It really makes no difference. I don't think my report shows any employment record.
