How can your wife fix her credit if you're filing Chapter 7 but she is not however she was an authorized user on four of your cards and the charge offs are showing up on her credit which was perfect?

Your wife, as an authorized user, is not liable for those debts. Have your wife's name removed from the accounts. Wait at least 30 days and then she can try disputing those tradelines with the credit bureaus.

Bankruptcy does not get discharged. Debts are discharged. The bankruptcy will remain on your credit report for 10 years from the date of filing. The debts that were discharged can remain for 7 years from the date of discharge, showing a zero balance and that they were discharged in bankruptcy.


How do you remove bankruptcy on my file that i never filed?

What is worse on your credit report charge offs repossessions or bankruptcy?

Any legal item that is shown in the public records portion of your credit report is a significant derogatory. That having been said; your credit rating and credit score takes into consideration ALL the factors showing. So it depends on what your definition of "worse" is. I have clients 2-3 years out of bankruptcy with higher credit scores that clients with pages of clean accounts that have recent late payments.

If you have an account that is showing negative and it was included in a bankruptcy can you have the negative account removed or does it stay there and count as two negatives?

The term negative is rather confusing. If the account did not have a balance it would not have been included in the bankruptcy. Any account included in a bankruptcy will remain on the report for the requred length of time, open accounts would be seven years, they will be marked included in bankruptcy. The BK accounts listing will remain for 10.


Will your credit report only show a discharged bankruptcy or will it also show all the accounts included in the bankruptcy?

Your credit report will show both the accounts (which were listed first) and the legal entry of the bankruptcy in the public records portion of your credit report. Once a bankruptcy is discharged, credit grantors should update the account listing (called a trade line) and make sure that no derogatory information is showing (like past due balance or collection account notations) EXCEPT for the "included in bankruptcy" statement. This is what SHOULD happen. It's up to you to follow up and make sure that your credit report looks like it is supposed to after a bankruptcy.

How do you get a bankruptcy that's not mine removed?

If a bankruptcy is showing on your credit report that is not yours, you will need to contact all three bureaus [or the ones that are reporting as such] to dispute the bankruptcy as 'not yours'. Send your dispute, registered, return receipt requested.

If you file bankruptcy does that mean that the payment history on your accounts is not supposed to show anymore?

This would be the best case scenario for your credit report, but it does not happen automatically. Hopefully, your bankruptcy attorney was diligent about informing all creditors included that their debts were discharged. If not, and you still have derogatory information showing that was included and discharged in a bankruptcy; then you need to send letters of dispute to the creditors and the credit bureaus. Follow up to make certain that nothing shows on your credit report except for the legal entry of bankruptcy, its disposition (the discharge) and all trade lines have no negative information except for the "included in..." or "discharged through..." notation.
