Best Answer

Credit Agencies generate their own data, using others records. They may provide their findings, using whatever parameters the requester wants.

A BK, being a Federal Court proceeding is a matter of public record for just about forever, to whomever wants to look.

Some credit reports are only requested with a look back of a few years, or for certain types of things - like only revolving credit accounts, or judgements. However, most standard credit reports use parameters that include most all items of record, (sometimes even criminal things), and a bankruptcy is normally included for 10 years and other things for 7 years.

For most cases of fraud it is 4 years from the time that the crime is discovered. In some instances, (parallel entity fraud, concealment of assets, etc.) the fraud might be considered a continuing offense, and thus there may be no statute of limitations (especially in cases of corporate bankruptcy). The federal statute of limitations in most cases of bankruptcy fraud is 5 years from either the discharge or denial of the bankruptcy proceedings.
