- Initial alert required when an insurer orders an investigative consumer reportMust occur no later than three days after the report is requested.
- Deadline to disclose the specific nature and scope of an investigation after a consumer requests itMust be completed within five days of receiving the inquiry.
- Mandatory action when an insurer declines an application based on a credit reportMust furnish the contact details of the agency that provided the data.
- Agency obligation when an applicant formally challenges the accuracy of their fileMust reinvestigate the disputed information, generally within 30 days.
Cevap
The correct pairings are: Initial alert for an investigative report -> within three days; Disclosure of nature and scope -> within five days; Adverse action -> furnish agency contact details; File accuracy challenge -> reinvestigate within 30 days.
Each match correctly pairs an FCRA protection with its corresponding rule. The Act specifically outlines a 3-day initial notice for investigative reports, a 5-day response window for follow-up inquiries, mandatory agency contact disclosures for adverse actions, and a 30-day reinvestigation period for disputed credit files.
