I have medical collections paid in full.  Work on GWs to delete the paind collections
Verizon through collection company on dispute never had verizon,  Keep disputing with CRAs or eventually CFPB..
car paid in time
old loans/ car closed paid in full but latest from 4 years ago
and WAY too many inquiries. Don't apply for any more credit.  Garden with the cards you have and try to add additional deposits to your secure cards.

1) Vacating judgements varies from state to state. Some states allow a judgement to be vacated when paid. Many do not. You need to research the laws of your state.

2) GW's are sent to whoever is reporting the item you want removed.

 

3) Continued disputes are NOT going to work. You need to report this as ID theft. This requires reporting it to police, and sending the report to the CRA's. This does not require any proof on your part, only the sworn statement (affidavit) to police.

 

4) Continue to build your current credit lines by periodically requesting Credit Line increases.

Re: help!!!!!!

"Vacating" basically erases the judgment from the court records, as if it never occurred.
