Good Evening, all!
I recently applied and was approved for a Discover It, my first card!
I already have about a year with an AU card, but I'm waiting for this one to show up so I can start building my own credit.
I read on here that it can take a couple of months for a new card to be reported. Is that true? And, if so, will they report lets say 3 months history or will it show the age starting from when they report it?
History begins with the open date which is the date your application was approved.
When I was approved for my Discover it, reporting started very soon after I got it, less than a month.
Time to first report can vary with any creditor/card -- not just Discover.
