Helping you make smart bankruptcy decisions

for how long does a personal bankruptcy (Chapter 7) stay on your credit report?

I think it's either 7 or 10 years. Which is it? And after that time how do you get it removed?

Chapter 7 stays on for 10 years from the date of filing.

If after 10 years, it doesn't come off automatically you would have to file a dispute with the CRA(s) as obsolete
