The bankruptcy is still on your credit report atleast under "Public Records". Any filings show up there. The fact that it was dismissed does not remove it.

They see that you attempted to file atleast. (Or were forced to file)

First, I would like to be sure the terminology is correct: A "dismissed" bankruptcy is one that was thrown out of Court for whatever reason, and the debts were never wiped out. A "discharged" bankruptcy is one that was successfully completed and the debts were wiped out. I am just guessing here - but I would say that a creditor would be hesitant to give a loan to someone with a dismissed bankruptcy since that person was in financial trouble sufficient to warrant filing bankruptcy, and if their case was dismissed, they STILL owe all that debt. I would think a creditor would be tentative to give even more credit to a person who has so much debt already that he or she tried to file bankruptcy on it once. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.
