How do I get a bankruptcy off of my credit report?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Roger J Bus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Debt Relief Law Center
There is no way that I am aware of to get a bankruptcy removed from a credit report prematurely. If there was a legal way, everybody would be doing it. One of the ramifications of filing bankruptcy is it can be legally reported on your credit report "up to 10 years." Some creditors may "ignore" your bankruptcy filing after only 2 years, others after 6, etc.- but that is their decision to make. Some creditors (such as high interest car lots) may ignore your credit report almost immediately, proof of a steady job is good enough for them to provide secured financing. But I have no knowledge of how you could remove a bankruptcy after only two years in order to obtain condo financing- the only thing you can do is be up front about it and persuade them you are a good credit risk in spite of your prior bankruptcy.

It stays on your credit report for 10 years. You can apply for a home loan whenever you want after discharge. If you have a lender, even before discharge.
