They are probably about the same. A tax lien stays on your credit report for 7 years from the date it was PAID, not from the date it was filed. I'll let someone else chime in on how long a bankruptcy stays on. I think 10 years(?).
The length of time that information remains on a credit report varies as to whether it's a bankruptcy, judgment, tax lien (paid/unpaid), late payment or an inquiry.
How can I get a lien removed from my credit report what is the statute of limitation law?
untill you pay it off
A judgment on your credit report conveys the decision of a court concerning a lawsuit. Amounts owed to the creditor are described in the judgment. A lien on a credit report expresses the legal right of one party to keep possession of property belonging to another party.
This can be difficult. There are many considerations. What type of tax lien is it? How old is the lien? How large is the lien amount? If the lien has the potential to jeopardize the security of the loan, then you most likely will need to take care of the lien first.

Yes, if it is not a perfected lien against real property and the debt was discharged in the bankruptcy.

You have to, it is a debt...it is just a secured debt...by the lien on the property.
If the bankruptcy is discharged you are no longer responsible for the debt.

What is reported is not under your control (unless you can prove it is erroneous). The one reporting it is the one to remove or change it. They of course need to be given a reason to release the lien.By satisfying the lien, that is paying it, so there is no more lien, while it will if not be removed from the report, it will be shown as satisfied and no longer a claim.AnswerOnly the credit bureaus or the one who reported the tax lien can remove. The credit bureaus will remove it if you dispute it and it isn't verified with in 30 days.
should show up on your credit report.

If the lien appears on your credit report, you dispute it with the credit bureau. You can do this by ordering your credit report on line and issuing a dispute through their investigation department, of course, you will have to provide evidence for your claim.
If there is a mortgage/equity loan involved,that loan will report on your credit history. The lien will report on the title of the house. A title search will be conducted if you are selling or refinancing the house.
The recording of the actual lien document will always remain in the public records. If you paid the tax, you should demand the filing of a release of lien. The negative entry on your credit should drop off 7 years after the release is filed.
