A bankruptcy will appear on your credit report for 7 years. Though most banks will not take it into account after 2 years from the date of discharge, if you want to refinance. Though with a chp. 13 you can refinance before the 2 year period.

7 yrs. If it still appears on your credit report after that period you must request that your tradelines & report be updated.

This is no longer correct. It will now stay for 10 years. I work with them all the time.
