If you're considering bankruptcy, you might be worried about how it will affect your credit score. Filing for bankruptcy can significantly impact your credit rating, but it's important to understand exactly how, and what steps you can take to rebuild your credit afterward.
Filing bankruptcy will typically cause an immediate drop in your credit score. The exact decrease can vary, but generally, individuals experience a reduction of anywhere from 100 to 200 points or more, depending on their previous credit history. Bankruptcy indicates to lenders that you have had substantial difficulty managing your finances, making you a higher risk.
Bankruptcy does not stay on your credit report forever, but it does remain for an extended period. Chapter 7 bankruptcy typically stays on your report for 10 years, while Chapter 13 remains for 7 years from the filing date. During this period, obtaining credit can be challenging, and when you do, it's often accompanied by higher interest rates.
Fortunately, bankruptcy doesn't mean permanent financial ruin. You can actively rebuild your credit through responsible financial practices. Steps such as making timely payments on new or remaining debts, using secured credit cards, and regularly reviewing your credit report can significantly improve your credit rating over time.
