Probably not. It was an attempt to get out of paying debts and many creditors would consider this to be significant as an indication of your credit risk.
A dismissed chapter 13 BK remains on the credit report for 7 years from the date of the dismissal.
This is true for Experian and Transunion. Equifax keeps a dismissed Chapter 13 BK for 10 years after date of filing... if anyone has been successful in getting Equifax to remove this item after 7 years, please share how you did it !!
Bankruptcies are included in most credit reports for 10 years from the time of discharge. Bankruptcies are not debts...those are generally discharged or paid in BK....they are reported, generally, for 7 years. As a matter of legal courts public record, the BK itself is able to be found on many other searches for just about forever.
Though legally it can be reported for up to 10 years after filing, most credit bureaus remove Chapter 13s after 7 years.

You can't get it removed. It will stay on there for 10 years and that is just a consequence of filing for bankruptcy. You can write to the credit reporting agencies to have the entry changed to reflet that it has been dismissed.
A CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY TAKES 10 YEARS BEFORE THIS IS REMOVED OFF OF YOUR CREDIT REPORT. THE GOOD NEWS THIS DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR CREDIT ANY LONGER! *********************I filed Chapter 7 in 2003 and depending on what your state court's definition of "dismissed" is it CAN affect your credit. For instance, some courts definition of "dismissed" is the same as "discharged." In Ohio it is "discharged" and I no longer owe any debt, however it DID IN FACT AFFECT MY CREDIT. I can NO LONGER get any. I received denial letters stating the reason for being denied, "Bankruptcy." So do your homework according to your state.
A Chapter 13, whether it is dismissed or successfully receives discharge, is on your credit report for 7 years. A chapter 7 is on your credit report for 10 years. i called equifax and a discharged chapter 13 stays on for 7 years and a dismissed chapter 13 stays on for 10 years
A chapter 13 Bankruptcy, dismissed, discharged, or otherwise, stays on your credit report for 7 years from the date it was filed.
Dismissed or completed? If it were dismissed, your credit report will show that you filed for bankruptcy. Obviously, if you filed bankruptcy your credit is not great. You certainly can buy a car for cash. Finding someone to lend you money; or getting a loan will be more difficult.
