After bankruptcy no longer is on your credit report after 10 years does your credit score immediately improve?
If by then, the consumer has establised a good payment history it may. Bankruptcy is forever. Regardless of the removal from a CR, there will always be record of it, and it can continue to cause a consumer financial problems.
The previous answer is actually quite misleading. In terms of credit and credit reporting, the bankruptcy coming off will immediately improve your score, usually in the neighborhood of 75-150 points. Of course a lot entails what you did with your credit since the bankruptcy was discharged. As far as "bankruptcy being forever," yes, there is a public record out there. And yes, it could hurt you in terms of gaining employment at a high salary or taking out a high-end mortgage on a house. In terms of car loans, credit cards, low-end house mortgages, etc., the bankruptcy will have absolutely no bearing on your situation. Good luck.
