How long does NY state keep negative credit information on file?

New York state does not "keep" credit information. National repositories, like Equifax, Experian, Trans Union and Innovis, keep credit information. There may be smaller, local credit agencies affiliated with the big three (the first three) which have consumer's files. Credit information remains for a long time. Certain aspects, like the opening date, is used to calculate credit scores for decades. Certainly basic data, such as indentifying information like your name, addresses, date of birth and social security number are kept throughout a consumer's life. Derogatory information is shielded after 7 - 10 years, (it still exists and can be accessed if your credit is pulled with specific parameters). This statute of limitations is set by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The FCRA CAN be superceded by state law, when applicable.

When a mortgage broker shops around for a home loan and there are numerous inquiries on your credit report how long do they stay on your report?

While inquiries are displayed only 90 days on a typical credit report, they are factored into a consumer's credit score for 12 months for loans, 24 months for insurance purposes. Different scoring models also assess inquiries differently. Bureaus factor similar inquiries, like multiple mortgage companies or multiple auto financers, as ONE inquiry if those inquiries are performed within a certain period of time. There is also variation in how many points are deducted from the score for an inquiry. Consumers who have any public record items on their credit, like bankruptcy, foreclosure, tax liens or judgments, are hit harder for an inquiry than a consumer who has no public records showing.
