I do not want to reset this timeframe as I at or past the middle of the the 7 yr period, but the DV letter looks like something I want and need to send out.<BR /> Sun, 24 Jul 2011 15:32:51 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Do-DV-letters-count-as-activity-to-CA-s/m-p/984298#M153407 Anonymous 2011-07-24T15:32:51Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Do-DV-letters-count-as-activity-to-CA-s/m-p/984392#M153419 <P>Absolutely nothing can reset the 7-7.5 yr CRTP once the debt goes to a CA.
