Here is a question that I hear alot: How long will a Chapter 7 bankruptcy stay on my credit report?
The answer to that question is simple: 10 years
Here is the better question to ask: How long after I file Chapter 7 bankruptcy will my ability to get credit (borrow money) be effected?
The answer is that it depends. Here is an article that I found recently that addresses this question.
