How long after a bankruptcy is discharged (finalized) does your credit report reflect that?
In other words, my bankruptcy was discharged at the end of March, when will the credit report relect which accounts were thrown out in the bankruptcy?
Thanks!
DAS: I know that the items stay on the credit report, but they will have a note indicating that the were included in the bankruptcy so that any future creditors can see that the debt is not outstanding.

How long does a chapter 7 bankruptcy last on your credit report in Connecticut?
I filed for a chapter 7 bankruptcy on December of 2001 and it has since been discharged. I would like to know how long that bankruptcy will be on my credit report. I filed the bankruptcy in the state of Connecticut. Thanks in advance for your help.

Is this a valid way to remove a bankruptcy from your credit report?
I have heard this is a good way to remove a BK. See below. Has anyone tried this?
Unlike other negative information which stays on your credit report for 7 years, bankruptcy can be reported for up to 10 years.
Bankruptcy courts keep cases active for a period of two years before placing them on microfiche.

If a bankruptcy is discharged is that good or bad for your credit rating?
I filed for bankruptcy in 1998. Recently in my credit report there was a public notice saying it was discharged.
