Rptd. field as " the date the first major delinquency was reported. '' Although the Date Maj. Dlqu.

Delinquent Accounts When you refer an account for collection and notify a CRA that you have done so, you also must report the date of delinquency to the CRA within 90 days. The date of delinquency is the month and year the consumer 's delinquency resulting in the referral began, see the examples below. FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) If you are a debt collector furnishing information to a CRA about the accounts of a creditor, you must report the date of delinquency given to you by the creditor. FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) This " date of delinquency '' determines how long the debt can be reported on a consumer 's credit report. Generally, a CRA may report a delinquent debt for seven years from the date of delinquency. If the debt was discharged in bankruptcy, however, a CRA may report it for 10 years. 

If the creditor didnt report the date of delinquency, you have two options : You may establish and follow reasonable procedures to determine the date from the original creditor or another reliable source, or If you cant determine the date, you may establish and follow reasonable procedures to ensure that the reported date of delinquency is a date before the account was referred to collection or charged off.
