A bankruptcy is not reported to the credit bureaus by the person who filed the bankruptcy. There are hundreds of operators of databases that collect information from public records and sell them to other institutions such as credit bureaus. Therefore if the bankruptcy is valid, it will be reported and placed in the public records portion of the consumer's credit report and will remain there for the required 10 year time limit. If it is a reporting error by the CRA the consumer should send a letter of dispute, with documenting evidence and demand the bankruptcy be removed from their credit report.
