Most of the time cancellation of debt will remain on your credit report for seven years. If the cancellation of debt is associated with a bankruptcy, it may take 10 years.
An individual who is not personally liable for a debt does not have ordinary income from the cancellation of the debt unless the cancellation occurs in a situation where the debt was secured by property that has declined in value or if the individual is in bankruptcy. Additionally, if the individual is solvent after the cancellation, they may need to report the cancellation as income. Exceptions also apply for certain types of student loan forgiveness and insolvency scenarios.
You can know if you have debt in collections by checking your credit report, receiving collection notices from creditors, or being contacted by debt collection agencies.
Ask the creditor to send you written verification of the debt including all of their documents after incurring the debt. If the cancellation of the debt is not indicated in their documents, then dispute the debt by providing your written notification of cancellation of the debt to the creditor and if unsuccessful, then dispute the debt with the credit bureaus who will initiate an investigation with the creditor and the credit bureau will usually repond to you in 30 days. If no response from the creditor then it will usually be deleted from your credit report. If the collection harassment continues then ignore it realizing that probably no legal action will be taken against you or you can contact an attorney to contact the creditor. Either pay the debt or file bankruptcy.
To obtain a 1099-C form for debt cancellation, you should contact the lender or financial institution that forgave the debt. They are required to provide you with this form if they canceled 600 or more of your debt. You may also receive a copy of the form from the IRS if the lender has reported the canceled debt to them.

One consideration would be that cancellation of a debt becomes income, and is taxable. But a repo isn't a cancellation of debt, it is a payment by selling the asset. However, as you can find in many discussions here, if your repossessed and the sale of the property does not return enough funds to fully satisfy the debt, the deficiency is normally not forgiven. Instead you remain owing that amount and the lender will presumably continue to try and collect it. Hence, the sale as an exchange of value isn't a cancellation of debt, and there likely isn't any even if there is a deficiency. No tax consequence.
Yes. Companies that you apply to for a collections position that are managing a debt you owe will sometimes refuse your employment as a 'conflict of interest'. Still others may obligate you to repay the debt to eliminate the conflict. Some may even hire you based on a payroll deduction payment plan if unable to resolve the debt immediately. Agencies that are not managing a debt you owe will never know you are in collections unless you tell them and would care less even if they did know.
Anytime after a debt is overdue.

Cancellation of debts depending on individual circumstances can take a very lengthy time. When a debt is cancelled the creditor/collector is required to send a 1099C to the debtor and the IRS. A portion of the debt then becomes taxable income.
