It will remain on the report for the required length of time and should be marked "included in bankruptcy."


What is a Charge-off in a credit report?

A charged off account is similar to a collection on your credit report. The creditor has written off the debt owed and closed the account. The debt is still valid though and can be collected on. The charge off will lower your credit score unless removed. You can dispute a charge off and this give the credit bureaus 30 days to verify the charge off or it must be removed from your credit report.

This will stay on your credit indefinitely until it is paid. Once it is paid, it will show a zero balance, but your credit report will still show that you did have a judgment at one time. It will stay on the report for approximately 7 years.

Should you still pay a charge off if it is off your credit report?

All depends on how old it is, some choose to walk away if the debt is beyond the SOL for legal recourse, or close to dropping off of the credit report. If that's not the case, some choose to negotiate and settle the debt for as much as 50 to 75% of the balance.

How to fix auto loan charge off?

What do you mean by "fix" it? Do you want this taken off of your credit report? Was the loan legitimately charged off? Do you still owe a balance on the loan? If you have a legitimate charge off reported on your credit report, it cannot be legally removed. If you owe a balance and the charge off is recent, paying off the balance could help. However, the charge off will still show on your credit report for 7 years, and only time will remove it. Still, if you keep your credit in good shape otherwise, the charge off will hurt you less and less as time goes by. Read more about your credit report and score in the link below.

A charge-off is a tax technicality that gives the creditor a tax deduction and you a taxable cash event. It does not "erase" the debt. You still owe it.
