The Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681c-1 Section 605 A (2) reads "Access to free reports. In any case in which a consumer reporting agency includes a FRAUD ALERT in the file of a consumer...the consumer reporting agency shall (A) disclose...that the consumer may request a free copy of the file..."

So, you need to contact the credit bureaus and follow their procedures for getting a fraud alert placed on your file. Once there, you are allowed under law to request your free reports.

This may be accomplished by means of contacting the Federal Trade Commission and following their instructions for victims of identity theft. These actions often lead to a police report for the crime. I've taked with many people who did not want to go to the police when the perpetrator is a family member. This is often one of the first steps to protecting yourself and re-establishing your rights under law.

What is the process for implementing a minor credit freeze for a child's credit report?

To implement a minor credit freeze for a child's credit report, a parent or guardian must contact each of the three major credit bureaus - Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion - and request a credit freeze for the child's information. This typically involves providing proof of identity for both the child and the parent or guardian, as well as any additional documentation required by the credit bureaus. Once the credit freeze is in place, no one will be able to open new credit accounts in the child's name without authorization.

What do sundry debit and credit mean?

Sundry is a category in general accounting that is used to describe a miscellaneous group of vendors. These vendors are often smaller or infrequent relationships that do not require their own entry. If the vendor currently owes the parent company money, then they are considered a sundry debit. On the other hand, if they have provided goods or services for which the parent company owes them for, they are considered a sundry credit.
