Best Practice Tip: Stay on top of your credit by checking your credit reports from the major bureaus regularly. You're entitled to a free credit report from each bureau every year. A good strategy is to check your Experian report in January, your TransUnion report mid-year, and your Equifax report later in the year. Access your reports for free at annualcreditreport.com.
