BANKRUPTCY IMPROVES CREDIT SCORES You probably think that bankruptcy trashes your credit score; data shows just the opposite. There’s no dip post filing, but instead an immediate uptick. After bankruptcy, credit scores go steadily up, says a 17 year study released by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Importantly, credit scores start improving the same year that the bankruptcy is filed. This is how the Consumer FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU puts it: Median credit scores increase steadily from year-to-year after consumers file a bankruptcy petition. Median scores for Chapter 7 filers recover more quickly than those for Chapter 13 filers possibly due to the much quicker and more likely discharge of Chapter 7 filings.

FAQs

How long does a bankruptcy take?

A. The Chapter 7 process is the simplest and fastest, which takes about four months. Since the Chapter 13 process involves making payments over a long term to pay off creditors, it can take three to five years.

How does bankruptcy affect your credit score?

A. A bankruptcy filing can cause your credit score to decrease and can remain on credit reports for up to 10 years. This makes future borrowing difficult, although you can immediately begin to work on improving your score through certain strategies in the wake of bankruptcy. It is important to remember that most people who are heavily in debt, subject to wage garnishment, repossession, and lawsuits, already have damaged credit scores.

What debts are dischargeable in bankruptcy?

A. The answer to this question depends on the type of bankruptcy that is filed. Under the Bankruptcy Code, Chapter 13 allows a more encompassing type of discharge to encourage individuals to use that chapter to repay a portion of their debts. Generally, most unsecured debt can be discharged. This means debt like credit cards and medical bills. Most debt that is secured, like your mortgage and vehicle loan, survives bankruptcy as a charge against those attached items unless a court order modifies the lien. If you wish to save your home or car, we recommend that you speak with our attorney about the best way to do this.

Should I get debt counseling or a debt consolidation loan?

A. If you want to do debt consolidation or credit counseling, we recommend that you do it under Chapter 13. This allows you to set the plan approved by the court and make payments through the bankruptcy court to stop interest, late fees, and creditor harassment.
