 TITLE: Can I Get a Foreclosure Removed From My Credit Report? CONTENT: When Will a Foreclosure Fall off My Credit Report?\n--------------------------------------------------\nForeclosures, like other negative marks, won't be on your credit report forever. In fact, a foreclosure must be removed seven years after the date of the first late payment that led to its default. In credit reporting terms, this is called the date of first delinquency, or DoFD.\nA foreclosure that's accurately reported will be removed from your credit reports no later than seven years from its DoFD. This deletion process will kick in automatically at the credit bureaus and do not require a reminder. If, however, the foreclosure is somehow incorrect, you can alert the credit bureaus by going through the dispute process. END
