Phase 02 — Credit / FCRA (Print Section)
Purpose
Create a court-usable, regulator-usable, and settlement-ready record showing:
- inaccurate furnishing by FCFCU,
- failed reinvestigations (Experian/Equifax/TransUnion),
- specific opportunities blocked (housing, cards, loans, business credit),
- month-by-month damages from August through February.
Inputs (Source of Truth)
- D_PHASES/02_credit_fcra/*
- C_VIS/10_violations/CREDIT_BUREAUS/*
- C_VIS/10_violations/FCFCU/* (credit-related)
- B_EVIDENCE credit report PDFs/screenshots + dispute mail/email proof
- A_TIMELINE entries documenting denials and “could not obtain credit” events
Outputs (What This Phase produces)
- Credit Harm Timeline (Aug–Feb)
- Tradeline Accuracy Matrix (FCFCU vs bureau)
- Dispute Packet(s): Furnisher + Bureau disputes
- Damages Ledger: credit_cost + lost_income + lodging/transport knock-ons
- Remedy Demands: deletion, correction, statutory/actual damages narrative
Definition of Done
- Every disputed tradeline has: (a) report snapshot, (b) dispute sent proof, (c) response/verification proof, (d) outcome.
- Every month Aug–Feb has at least one documented “credit harm impact” entry or marked “no event recorded”.
- At least one regulator-ready packet exists (CFPB) and one litigation-ready packet exists (FCRA claim skeleton).
