Recent Payment Not Showing on Your Credit Report

1. Record your payment's confirmation: amount, and the date it posted.
2. Record the report's own date as printed on your copy.
3. Note whether the payment posted before or after the report was compiled.
4. Check whether the account itself is present and which months the report shows for it.
5. Pull the same account on the other two bureaus' reports and note any differences.
6. Check the furnisher's own record of the payment on your account page or statement.
7. If the report's date is well after the posting date, write one sentence: the field missing, your record's value and date.
8. Record the furnisher's address as printed on the report for any direct dispute you send yourself.
