1. State the type of official information that is being changed, without disclosing the actual information, and the reason for the change;
2. Advise the consumer that he or she must contact the consumer reporting agency, in writing by mail or by any other method allowed by the consumer reporting agency, within seven days of the date of the notice if the change in the official information is incorrect; and
3. Be sent to both the consumer's new and old address where the official information being changed is the consumer's address.
