Congratulations!
You chose the correct answer.
(d)
Under the FCRA, an end-user must provide an applicant a
copy of his or her report at the time of adverse action,
when it is obtained for purposes other than employment,
so that the applicant or employee has the opportunity to
correct errors in the report. 1681b(b)(3). In all other
circumstances, an end-user must provide a copy of the report
to the consumer at the time the adverse action is taken.
Additionally, some states, MN, OK, and CA, require that
if a consumer checks a box on the disclosure/authorization
form requesting a copy of his or her report, that the end-user
provide it to him or her. These state laws generally allow
for the employer to contact the CRA to comply with this
request. Although not required under the FCRA, it is a best
practice for the employer to provide a copy of the report
to a consumer when he or she requests it or to direct the
consumer to the CRA who ran the report.
