Getting the bureaus to update based off of a letter from creditor

Hello, 

 

I am in the midst of applying for a mortgage and need quick updates to my scores. The timing of my creditor's update is too far off, but they have provided me with a letter showing my current balance. How can I get this to the bureaus?

 

Thank you!

I would just call the creditor and tell them that the letter isn't going to cut it and that you need an off-cycle reporting performed immediately.  It literally takes them 30 seconds and you'd see the update across all 3B within a couple of days tops.

Provide a copy of the creditor's letter to your loan officer. See if they can do a rapid rescore ( or similiar name). It is product that the lender may have access which will expedite the update greatly.  It should be less than a week if my memory is correct.
