A criminal statute of limitations typically commences running at the time the criminal act is committed. Here, that would be when the misrepresentation on the credit card application occurred. The other acts listed have more to do with statute of limiatations regarding the collection of an account and credit report notations. To be certain, you can consult directly with a local criminal law attorney.
