If I understand correctly, your sister is a co-signer on an additional card also held by you, and both of you are having problems re-paying the debt. If this is the situation and the charge you are trying to dispute is the 6K from 2003, there's nothing you can do. If she was not a co-signer, then you will have to file criminal charges which I would assume you wouldn't want to do. Overall, the best advice for someone in over their head with financial strain is to try to refinance with any equity you may own in personal property, or see financial counseling to consolidate your debt. If you are behind in your payments, the credit card company may work with you on the remaining balance. Good luck

When you dispute a credit problem on your credit report does the agency have a certain time limit to verify and prove the dispute?

The Fair Credit Reporting Act reads "...if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information...is disputed...the agency shall...conduct a reasonable reinvestigation...BEFORE THE END OF THE 30-DAY PERIOD beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute... It goes on to say that this time period "...MAY be extended for not more than 15 additional days if the consumer reporting agency (bureau) receives information from the consumer (you) during that 30-day period..." The hint here is not to write again with any additional info until you receive their response. You also need to allow for mailing time, about 3-5 business days. So, if you send a letter of dispute, and have not heard back within 35-40 days, write again.
