7 years from the date it occurred.

After approximately 3 years, it should have very little, if any, negative effects to your credit score.
The more recent the late payment the more severe the affect on your credit score. Late payments will either run their course in 7 years, be removed by the creditor, or removed by the credit bureau.

How do you explain late payments?

When you are late on your payment for a credit card, car loan, mortgage, etc... these "creditors" can report this late payment to the credit bureau that they have a relationship with (either Trans Union, Experian, or Equifax).These credit bureaus in turn stick it on your credit report which negatively affects your credit score.There are30 day late payment items,60 day late payment items,and 90 day late payment items.Many people remove these items by disputing them with the credit bureau (the credit bureau then has 30 days to go back to the creditor to verify the late payment). Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

What happens to your credit report if you have a late payment and finance charge?

Maybe nothing. It depends upon whether the credit card company reported the delinquent activity to the credit bureaus. If it was a one-time issue (and otherwise you're always on time with your payments) you can contact the credit company to ask that they waive the late payment fee as a customer courtesy, just explain it was an oversight on your part and won't happen again. You can also ask if they reported the missed payment to the credit bureaus, or run your credit report to find out yourself.
