How many months does it take after credit cards have been brought up to date by making all the missed payments before your credit score goes up?

Taking in consideration that the accounts were past due and now current--it would take approx 3 months to start changing your rating. If all is good- you should see a difference after 6 months. It may take up to a year for your scores to really improve, alot depends on how far past due the accounts went and what else took place and "is currently" taking place on your credit. Everything affects your scores, past dues, current accounts, loans with finance companies, collection accounts, bankruptcy and inquiries (too many and this negatively affects the report). To me it sometimes seems that there is no rythnm or reason as to how the scores come about, how fast or slow they change but change they do--Good luck!!. Credit scores are calculated based on ALL the information in a consumers' file at the time the request is made. Without detailed information about the entire picture, it would be impossible to guess the impact of one piece of data.
