Bankruptcy typically remains on your credit report for up to 10 years, depending on the type of bankruptcy filed. Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays for 10 years, while Chapter 13 bankruptcy usually remains for 7 years. However, it may be removed earlier in some cases if errors are found or if you successfully dispute it. Additionally, while it affects credit reports for a significant period, the impact on your financial life may lessen over time with responsible financial behavior.

You applied for bankruptcy in December 2007 you have recently applied for a loan and it seems to have been accepted Is it illegal for you to carry on with the application?

If your bankrupcy isn't complete, it would likely be a violation of the terms of your bankrupcy with the court. The court could then choose to deny your claim of bankrupcy. If your bankrupcy filing is totally complete, depending on the type of loan it is not unusual (except now with todays credit crisis) to be approved for a loan simply because the company approving the loan knows that you can not file for bankrupcy again for a relatively long period of time.

Is'nt it true that after seven year off parole your reacord is clean?

No. You are confusing the bankrupcy law with criminal law. After seven years your credit record is considered clean if you haven't defaulted on any other loans and you can only declare bankrupcy every seven years. A criminal record as an adult stays with you but the longer you stay clean the better jobs and such. So, if asked, you do still have a record after seven years.
