FICO versions

Just wondering, in looking at my MyFico scores, does anyone know what  versions  lenders use?  Is  it FICO 8 or  the newer released versions 9 for the bankcard, auto, and I  guess general and are  those what is called the "enhanced scores?'" Thanks for any  input!

 

Might have answered my own question, sorry

Re: FICO versions

It depends on the lender.  You can pretty much count on MTG lenders using the 5,4,2 scores that max at 850 (per the scale) listed as "widely used in mortgage lending" on your FICO report.  CC's could be anything but there are bankcard scores.  Many auto lenders use one of the auto enhanced scores.  All of these can vary because they weigh things differently.

 

You can ask the lender which score they use before applying.
