Your Law Enforcement Report
(20) One way to get a credit reporting agency to quickly block identity theft-
related information from appearing on your credit report is to submit a
detailed law enforcement report (“Identity Theft Report”). You can obtain
an Identity Theft Report by taking this form to your local law enforcement
office, along with your supporting documentation. Ask an officer to witness
your signature and complete the rest of the information in this section. It’s
important to get your report number, whether or not you are able to file in
person or get a copy of the official law enforcement report. Attach a copy of
any confirmation letter or official law enforcement report you receive when
sending this form to credit reporting agencies.
Select ONE:
I have not filed a law enforcement report.
I was unable to file any law enforcement report.
I filed an automated report with the law enforcement agency listed
below.
I filed my report in person with the law enforcement
officer and agency listed below.
Law Enforcement Department State
(20):
Check “I have
not...” if you have
not yet filed a
report with law
enforcement or
you have chosen
not to. Check “I
was unable...” if
you tried to file
a report but law
enforcement
refused to take it.
Automated report:
A law
enforcement
report filed
through an
automated
system, for
example, by
telephone, mail,
or the Internet,
instead of a
face-to-face
interview with a
law enforcement
officer.

this complaint is true, correct, and complete and made in good faith. I understand that this
complaint or the information it contains may be made available to federal, state, and/or local

Your Affidavit
(22) If you do not choose to file a report with law enforcement, you may use this form as an Identity
Theft Affidavit to prove to each of the companies where the thief misused your information that
you are not responsible for the fraud. While many companies accept this affidavit, others require
that you submit different forms. Check with each company to see if it accepts this form. You
should also check to see if it requires notarization. If so, sign in the presence of a notary. If it
does not, please have one witness (non-relative) sign that you completed and signed this Affidavit.
