Welcome!
 
You send it to the CRA where the information you are disputing appears.  If there is no mention of the account on your TU report, then you have nothing to dispute with TU.  You dispute the information that is provided on the particular report.
 
Each lender has its own preferences for which scores it will pull.

A lot of them will use one or two.  It depends on what it is that you are apping for.  If you are apping for a mortgage, they use all 3 and usually go with the middle score.
 Also, if you are going to dispute something, dispute it on whichever CRA's are reporting what you are disputing.

you would file with all CRAs that are reporting the same debt.

You dispute it with all 3 CRAs only if there is wrong info on all 3 reports.
 
For example, if one CR shows the judgment as paid (because you paid it) but another CR shows it as unpaid, you would only dispute it with the latter CRA because the information is correct on the former CR.
