Haha, imagine if the firm's response was 'Sorry, your information is now permanently etched in stone. Good luck with that!'

Option D is just asking for trouble. Revealing third-party info? That's a privacy nightmare waiting to happen. B is the way to go.

I agree with B. The firm should fix the errors immediately. They can't just ask the woman to redo the forms - that's putting the burden on her!
