Case Study
A CRB name mismatch can become a loan problem.
Imagine applying for a loan and discovering that your credit report contains another person's name and financial information while the NRC number appears to be associated with the record.
The correct response is not to panic and not to assume that the problem will automatically disappear.
The issue should be investigated, the identity established, the source of the information identified and the correction process documented.
If a lender is reviewing an application while a correction is pending, the applicant can explain the situation using available evidence and relevant dispute documentation.
Important
A supporting document can explain a disputed record, but it does not automatically guarantee loan approval.
Lenders remain responsible for their own credit and risk decisions.
