Tax Lien paid and satisfied

[topdollar64]

I had a state tax lien that has been paid and satisfied. I have documentation from my Clerk of Court's office that it was paid. All of the big 3 CRAs still show it unpaid. What's the best way to correct?

not to over simplify but have you tried sending a copy of your paperwork to each of the big 3?

Also I would ad to make sure that you look at reports from each of the 3, do they all have possession of the record? the reason I ask is because for example if TransUnion does not have the record and say (Equifax & Experian both do) TransUnion may pull a BS move and ad it to your record with them, as a paid status even if they didn't originally have a true or legal possession of it, - but you mistakenly send it to them. I believe this is illegal for the to do, and I'm waiting for response from the FTC from a demand for opinion letter I sent them. A little off subject but useful information, and could possibly pertain.

Make sure that you get the disposition (the Release of Lien) recorded. It has to be recorded in the same jurisdiction as the original lien and will involve nominal fees that vary from county to county.

Go ahead and send a certified copy to the bureaus, but have the release recorded also so that IF the bureaus don't accept your documentation (Like TU), then the disposition will get picked up in the same manner as the lien (by those 3rd party data vendors).

Good luck!

I forwarded my Release to all three, it dropped off all apart from TU who still have it set unpaid. You might try a method of verification as the CRA never actually contact the courts themselves but get their info through third party.
