Reaffirmed car note - showing as derogatory

I'm aboiut 5 days away from discharge - reaffirmed by auto loan. I took a peek at my credit and its showing as a Open - Derogatory status, shows that it was 30-59 days late ( it was at one point, prior to me filing) and has the remarks "reaffirmation of debt"

 

I was thinking that my prior poor pay history would not be counted against me post bk.. I havemt missed a payment since filing, but this seems to be off. Am I correct?

Payment history prior to filing bankruptcy is not affected by the filing or the discharge. Looks like this tradeline is being reported correctly.

That is correct. The lates will still show. As time goes on, they will count less, but they will still be on there. I have some lates on my student loan that are still showing. Eventually, the impact of them will be much less.

 

Good luck to you!
