Does having negative information drop from your credit report when the time limit has ran out boost your credit score automatically?
Yes. But probably not by much. The reason has to do with the configuration of credit scoring software. Credit scores places the most emphasis, 35%, on what has occured recently (within the last 12 mos). So, information so old that it is "dropping off" is not causing much of a deduction anyway. However, the deduction that is being generated would be gone once the data falls off. Even if this is only a few points, yes, your score would recover those points.
