Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

The issue involves the reporting of a charged-off account and the failure to provide the required Form 1099-C for canceled debt. A formal request was made for the issuance of Form 1099-C to ensure accurate reporting of the canceled debt, as per IRC Section 6050P. Despite previous requests and the company 's commitment to resolving the matter, the necessary documentation has not been provided.

It has been noted that once a debt is canceled and a Form 1099-C is issued, the credit report should no longer show a remaining balance due. However, the status of the account has not been updated to reflect this. Relevant laws and regulations, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Internal Revenue Code ( IRC ) Section 6050P, and others, were cited to emphasize the importance of accurate reporting and compliance with legal requirements.

The resolution requests include the issuance of Form 1099-C within 30 days, immediate deletion of the reinserted charge-off from the credit report within 45 days, and compliance with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act ( SCRA ) within 60 days, among others. Failure to provide Form 1099-C within the specified time frame may result in the filing of IRS Form 3949-A.
