I've made a late payment or two in the past on a CC.  it was late by no more than 3 days from the due date.

Will this show on my credit report?  Everything i've found in my google seach indicates that 30+ day late payments show.  nothing about a couple days late........

It shouldn't. IIRC, a "late payment" is actually a payment that has gone a full-cycle (one month?) from it's due date and another bill has already been sent out. This is for credit reporting purposes only and you still may have to pay a late fee but it shouldn't show up on your report as a late-pay.

You can always call your credit provider to make sure.

At 3 days late I doubt it will ding your credit unless you do it alot.



You may get tagged as a "slow pay".

I don't remember what card it was on, happened a year  or so ago. I paid the late fees/stupid tax.  

I'm requesting a report but am to impatient to wait to see what it says.

It's not late until it's 30 days after due date!

Three days will not ding your credit...at 30 days it gets reported late.

I used to work for Trans Union Credit Bureau.
