How long does an unpaid credit card stay on my credit score?
It depends on the credit bureau. Experian, for example, removes information after seven years. Equifax removes unpaid items after 10 years. TransUnion is a little more forgiving and will remove an unpaid item after seven years, as long as it's been reported to them as unpaid by the creditor. So it really varies depending on which bureau you're talking about. But generally speaking, an unpaid credit card account will stay on your credit score for anywhere from 3-10 years, depending on the credit bureau and how long the account has been delinquent.

How can a person get a past delinquent pay off a credit report when it was dismissed because of bankruptcy?
Really, the only way to have it removed is to dispute it with the credit bureau reporting it. The credit bureau will then contact the creditor for verification. If the creditor can't verify the account, it must be removed immediately. If the creditor can verify the account, your choices are limited to disputing it again and/or just waiting for 10 years for the account to come off of your report.
If you applied for additional credit cards because you were advised that to improve your credit you needed at least two new charges can you have a note stating this placed on your credit report?
Generally speaking, you only make notations on credit reports to explain extenuating reason for baad credit or reasons for dispute. The credit bureaus don't really care why you applied for a credit card in the first place.
