Re: inquiries

I think its 12 months and inquiries no longer count towards FICO scoring.

+1.  Inquiries remain visible on your reports for 2 years but are only counted in scoring for 1 year. 

 

And it varies by creditors in terms of how many inquries is too many, and also when creditors stop counting inquiries as recent ~ they might look over the past 6 or even 12 months.

I applied for my first Chase account back in 11/2011. On my credit report on myfico, it says "you have no inquiries affecting your FICO score"

as stated below, its 1 year for fico scoring but reports for two years, but never discount that they may report excessive INQ's as the reason for denial even if its just 2, if they denied for other internal reasons they don't want to tell you. Why else would you see people getting prime cards with 6, 8, 10, or even 20 INQ's and some people are denied for having 2. 

 

 

Cards: Chase Southwest 20k & CSR 17k & CSP 10k & FNBO 30k Oregon Duck 5k, & AMEX BCP 32.5k & Amex Magnet 15k&amg; Hilton Surpass 7.5k & Delta Gold 12k & Zync NPSL, Fidelity AMEX 17k Commerce5.9k & Cash Forward 7.5k & Sams Club MC 20k, Paypal Extras MC 10k, Paypal Credit 7.25k CapOne Venture 15k, QS 2.5k, QS 750, Amazon 10k, Walmart 10k, Citi Simplicity 18k, Discover IT 23k and a nice stack of store cards.

FYI Chase may have pulled a different Credit Bureau so its not showing on your myFico report.  


Starting Score: TU 732 | EQ 655 | EX Plus 725 [Jan 2012]
