Normally takes a week or so. It depends on if the Judge orders a hearing (which some do, some don't).

If there is a hearing, normally a few days later there will be an order to dismiss.

The filing of a Chapter 13 SHOULD show on your credit report. The dismissal MAY show. Without seeing all three of your credit bureau files, there is no way to know for certain. You should obtain copies of all three reports from Equifax, Experian and Transunion. Dispute the appearance of anything having to do with a bankruptcy if you did not "go through with it".


Will a voluntary auto repossession still show on your credit reports after Chapter 7 is discharged?

Most likely. They are two separate issues.AnswerYes. It will show that you no longer owe the debt, as well. AnswerIt MAY show up, however, if the debt for the vehicle was discharged in bankruptcy, it cannot be reported. There can be no negative reporting on a discharged debt - not even for a voluntary repo. If the vehicle was surrendered as part of the bankruptcy, the loan should show as a ZERO balance, no past dues, and 'included in bankruptcy' on your credit report.
