Credit after bankruptcy

Rebuilding credit after bankruptcy is doable…however, you need to do a little work to make sure everything is as it should be.

A common worry I hear from client just out of bankruptcy that credit stuff on their credit reports is wrong. Sometimes things remain as collections on the report that were discharged in bankruptcy. Is this correct? Nope. End of the world? Certainly not. Fixable? Certainly.

The easy fix is to send a note to the credit bureau and the creditor that the debt was discharged by the bankruptcy and should no longer be on the report. Be sure to do in writing. Writing is a pain- I know- it’s also the only proof that you brought it to someone’s attention.

If they still refuse to fix it, the letter is your proof you asked. That proof, along with the motion I would file, would allow the bankruptcy court to sanction the creditor.
