Bankruptcy doesn't erase anything from your credit.
In fact, it adds a very, very, bad thing to it.

What are the landlord's rights under Chapter 7?
i was a landlord in PA trying to evict a tenant who filed for chapter 7 to avoid eviction. Only thing i could do was petition the courts for a relief from stay of bankruptcy to continue with the eviction. Without doing that, the tenant would be protected under bankruptcy law. However, getting the relief from the court can take a month or longer. The alternative is to wait it out until the bankruptcy discharges or gets dismissed, then you can continue with the eviction. Good luck if you have a smart tenant, they will find every loop hole like mine did. It seems like tenants have more rights than landlords.
Can filing for bankruptcy stop an eviction?
If the eviction is for nonpayment of rent, yes, since it is a debt collection procedure. The landlord or property manager would have to move for relief from stay to proceed. However, this varies from state to state and even from one bankruptcy court to another, so check with a local bankruptcy lawyer. Even if the eviction is not for past-due rent, the claim will include costs and lawyer's fees, so the landlord should move for relief from stay or wait, if it is a c. 7, until the case is closed. Make sure the landlord is included as a creditor to discharge any money owed to the landlord.
How do you report an eviction to the credit bureaus?
No need to do any reporting. When the eviction judgment was entered, the credit bureaus update their files and will put this on the defendant tenant's credit file.
Do you still pay rent if you file for bankruptcy?
Yes, you still pay rent, because being bankrupt does not entitle you to free housing.
Can a land lord evict you for filing bankruptcy?
Strictly speaking, no, they can't evict you for that, as long as you are in compliance with the terms of the lease and making rent payments. They aren't, however, obliged to allow you to stay there rent-free; if you stop paying rent, then yes, they can evict you. Filing bankruptcy could put a temporary hold on eviction proceedings, also. The bottom line is: if you're not just curious, if the answer really matters to you, then you need to talk to a bankruptcy lawyer about the specific details of your particular case.
Can you put credit cards on a bankruptcy?

Can a judgment be put on your credit if the debt was part of the bankruptcy?
Not if the debt was discharged in the bankruptcy. If the judgment was on the credit report before the bankruptcy was filed and/or was discharged in the bankruptcy, the entry will still remain on the CR for seven years.
