Were you looking for a specific number?

It depends on ALL of the other items on your credit report and their relation to one another. Even one small piece of information can affect your score and the way the risk indicators factor against one another.

Generally speaking, derogatory information that is more than 12 months old begins to affect your score less and less. For a seven year post-discharge bankruptcy, you need to look at all the other factors that can affect your score.

Do you have positive on-going credit? What is your proportion of debt to available credit on revolving accounts? What types of credit are you using? Are you limiting and controling inquiries into your credit? And most importantly, are you paying all of your credit bills on time?

If you did not establish positive credit after your bankruptcy, THAT could be affecting your current score much more so than any 7-year-old legal item.

Not much to make a difference.
