Chapter 13 bankruptcy dismissed is it the length of time from the date of filing or the dismissal filing?
Note a discharge and a dismissal are 2 different things....presumably you mean discharge (as in resolved). Dismissal are a whole different thing (which are done because you didn't comply with something required by the court originally or such)...they can be refiled soon, but you have to have a reason the courts will agree to..not that now you care (preferably show some change in finances).....as your promises to creditors, and then the court, weren't done before, they tend to not take your promises or thoughts now as not too meaningful.
