Getting A Free Credit Report by Mail

When you mail in your credit report request form to Equifax and TransUnion a human being will review it and reject it if it is not readable or complete, so please ensure that you:

  • print neatly; if they can’t read your writing, they will ignore the request;
  • submit two pieces (photocopy the front and back) of government I.D.
    • the photocopies must be clear and readable;
    • one of the IDs must have your current address (like a driver’s license);
      • if you don’t have ID with a current address, in addition to your two pieces of ID, include a utility bill or other invoice with your address on it.
