The Fair Credit Reporting Act allows a bankruptcy to show for 10 years from the "date of entry of the order for relief or the date of adjudication". This refers to the legal item which appears in the public record portion of a credit report. Any tradelines that were included in bankruptcy, which are the accounts listed in the report, will be shielded from view after 7 years.

Bankruptcies are a matter of public record and this is why they appear in credit histories.

The credit report entry will state the bankruptcy was filed and dismissed, not discharged.
