Best Answer

The date when the derogatory account is going to be removed from your credit report is known as the FCRA Compliance Date.

Most derogatory accounts remain on your credit report for 7 years. Although there are exceptions. Chapter 7 bankruptcy accounts will remain on your credit report for 10 years. A tax lien may report indefinitely.

You can try to have the accounts removed before the FCRA Compliance Date by contacting the credit bureaus, collection agencies, and original creditors. If you don't know what you are doing you will need to do quite a bit of research on how this process works, or you may hire a professional credit repair company to help you.

If your bankruptcy is nine and a half years old will it be taken off your credit report when it reaches the 10th year automatically?

Not necessarily. Sometimes it can take a credit bureau a few months (or even longer) to take an old record off your credit report. The best advice I can give is to request a credit report after 10 years have passed. If the bankruptcy is still listed, you can dispute the record directly with the credit bureau. You can get a free credit report at www.annualcreditreport.com or from most housing counseling agencies. You can find these agencies by looking on www.hud.gov.
