FICO AAoA 14 years
CK AAoA 10 months
CK is a joke
FICO and VantageScore count both closed and open accounts on one's report when calculating AAoA (average age of accounts), AoYA (age of youngest account), and AoOA (age of oldest account). Credit Karma's front end software gets this wrong and uses only open accounts.
Karma also botches utilization. FICO always rounds up, e.g. 2.1% becomes 3%. Karma will round 2.1% down to 2%. Other sites, including sites that provide FICO scores, have also been known to do this.
Don't confuse the way FICO handles account age stats with the way it handles number/percentage of cards reporting positive balances. For number/percentage of cards reporting positive balances, FICO considers only open accounts.
Where can I view my AAoA on MyFico? I can't seem to find it.
@grower1, on your dashboard, click on one of your FICO8 scores. In the FICO Score 8 Ingredients section, AAoA will be listed under "Length Of Credit History."
Got it, thanks!
