Electoral register and cra

[postggj]

i have been in the financial wilderness for a number of years but thanks to cag i now have a clean credit file.

i often check my credit file and have recently done a credit score. this score is not as high as i would like it to be.

the reason given by the cra is that i am not on ther electrol roll.

 

what i would like to know is does not being on the register have a big impact on my score.

by how many points will my score go up if i register.

 

the reason for not registering is dca, this is no longer a problem

 

many thanks

If you have received the registration forms for the electoral register, it is a criminal offence not to complete them in full. Being on the register is not simply a matter of choice.

 

I don't know by how points your score will improve, but it will improve. Being on the register provides evidence of permanent address.

The other benefit of being on the electoral role is that you can VOTE

You can take option to not be in published copy of the register available to the public.

I found that my credit report showed that I was not on electoral roll and the time at address field was 00 years 00 months.

I am on the electoral roll and have written confirmation
